"Fox Body Beast"
• This vehicle is located at our Indianapolis facility - 2461 Reeves Rd #194, Plainfield, IN 46168 •
This 1989 Ford Mustang LX Hatchback is a prime example of the iconic Fox Body Mustang, combining classic style with modern performance. With less than 85,000 miles on the body and a motor and transmission boasting fewer than 3,000 miles since their professional rebuilds, this car is a turn-key performer. Whether you're looking for a street cruiser or a track-ready ride, this Mustang delivers on all fronts.
The heart of this machine is a professionally rebuilt 302 cubic-inch engine, crafted by Donathen Racing and "By Simple Machine." It's been taken to .030 over with 9.5:1 compression, utilizing Flat Top Speed Pro pistons and a Freezy custom hydraulic roller cam from Comp Cams for a strong and reliable power curve. Cursio aluminum heads and Scorpion 1.6 roller rockers further enhance performance, while the Holley SysteMAX intake manifold, Anderson Power Pipe, and Pro-M 80 MAF meter ensure optimal airflow and fueling, supported by 30lb injectors. A Canton 7-quart oil pan, BBK 1 5/8" long tube headers, Pnee Setter H pipe, and Flowmaster Super 44 stainless mufflers create an aggressive yet refined exhaust note.
Power delivery is smooth and precise thanks to the new Tremec TKO 5-speed transmission, complemented by a RAM clutch and a Stifflers transmission crossmember. The drivetrain is fortified with a PST 3.5" aluminum driveshaft, a rebuilt rear end featuring Tru Trac posi, Moser 31-spline axles, and 3.73 gears. These components ensure exceptional durability and performance during spirited driving or casual cruising.
Handling and braking have been modernized with a 5-lug conversion, new front brakes, and a new steering rack, complete with inner and outer tie rods. These upgrades provide confidence-inspiring control, while SVE 18-inch wheels and Nitto 555 G2 tires offer superior grip and a striking stance.
To keep things cool and comfortable, the car features a new radiator, as well as a completely overhauled air conditioning system with a new condenser and compressor. This Mustang is as enjoyable to drive in the heat of summer as it is to unleash on the open road.
With its timeless design, low-mileage body, and an extensive list of top-quality upgrades, this 1989 Ford Mustang LX Hatchback is a rare find. It's a meticulously crafted blend of nostalgia and performance, ready for its next enthusiast owner.
Price does not include applicable tax, title, license, processing, and/or $199 documentation fees.
