1 of 1 Fox: 32k-Mile 1983 Ford Mustang GLX 5.0 Convertible 5-Speed

With the benefit of 20/20 hindsight, the newly redesigned “Fox-Body” Mustang for 1979 was extremely important in the history of Ford’s pony car. Not only did it push the prior Pinto-based Mustang II into distant memory with its fresh design, the new Mustang would soon lead a fresh performance era in Detroit with the return of the Mustang GT in 1982. The GLX companion model also debuted that year, available in Hatchback and Notchback body styles, with the full Mustang engine range available, allowing buyers to choose a more luxurious and less aggressive looking Mustang without the hood scoop and spoilers of the GT. By 1983, the Fox-generation Mustang would also deliver one of the first factory available convertible models offered since 1976 in America. Featuring standard power operation and roll-up rear quarter windows, the Mustang convertible was quite sophisticated and offered a true open-air experience.

Documented by a Marti Report as the only Mustang with its specific option combination produced for 1983, this GLX Convertible also features the hot 4-barrel Holley-carbureted 5.0L V8 engine and 5-speed manual powertrain combination. Only 32k miles have been covered and this Blue-on-Blue pony that looks great with caring ownership in full abundance. As the seller relates, it’s exceptionally original, remains excellent, runs great, and looks amazing. Additional documents include a build sheet and window sticker, and the car also includes two convertible-top covers.
