The "new" Mustang might not look as appealing as the original model launched in the '60s, and despite a significant facelift, the 1987 version still recorded a massive annual sales decline from the previous year.
Ford sold a little over 159,000 Mustangs in 1987, down from 224,000 units a year earlier. The sales recovered slightly in 1988 when the American company shipped nearly 180,000 cars but eventually collapsed in the first model years of the new decade.
Get ready to be wowed.
The Mustang posted on eBay by seller moparpower77 is an incredible time capsule that flexes just 3,350 original miles. The odometer indicates only 5,390 km for our European readers, so this Mustang GT is almost a new car that spent its entire life locked in a garage.
As you can easily figure out by simply checking the photos in the gallery, everything comes in incredible shape (the car isn't spotless, but more on this a bit later), including the paint, the interior, and the engine. Furthermore, the car sells with plenty of documents, including the bill of sale, the original manuals, the service receipts, the delivery checklist, and even a frame Marti report.
The one-owner Mustang flexes the original paint but still exhibits a few dents and scratches that a collector would want to fix. They are all highlighted in the provided photos, but overall, the car looks incredible, especially given it rolled off the assembly lines 36 years ago.
You won't find any rust on this Mustang, and considering the mileage, this makes perfect sense. The seller does not provide such information, but I believe the car spent its entire lifetime in a climate-controlled garage where its tip-top shape could survive without any required fixes.
The Mustang ticks all the boxes for a collectible, as it's completely original, still flexes the factory engine in running shape, and comes with a mileage impossible to find on a car produced nearly four decades ago.
The selling price makes perfect sense for a 1987 Mustang in such a condition, though I think most collectors would rather look for first-generation models than newer releases. The mileage is the car's main selling point, but getting $42,500 for this Mustang will be a challenge. However, the seller has also enabled the Make Offer button, so if you want to take the car home but have another deal in mind, contact the owner to discuss more details.
Interested buyers can see the car in person in Millerton, New York, and considering its condition, they can also drive it home on its wheels. On the other hand, the low mileage makes it a time capsule whose odometer reading should be preserved, so bringing a trailer is the better choice.
