This 1985 Ford Mustang GT is an absolutely beautiful, exceptionally well-preserved original survivor with just 24,554 original miles and only one owner since new. Powered by Ford’s legendary 5.0L High Output V8 paired with the highly desirable 5-speed manual transmission, this Mustang represents an increasingly difficult-to-find example of one of the most iconic American performance cars of the 1980s. With its remarkably preserved original paint, beautiful original interior, original Goodyear tires, incredibly low mileage, and extensive documentation dating all the way back to new, this is a truly outstanding example of the legendary Fox Body Mustang GT. The original factory paint remains beautiful and shows exceptionally well for its age. The body is extremely clean and straight, and the overall exterior has clearly benefited from careful ownership and proper storage throughout its life. This is not a restored Mustang trying to recreate its original appearance — it is a remarkably preserved, one-owner original survivor that has survived more than four decades in impressive condition. Finding an unrestored Fox Body Mustang GT with its original paint is becoming increasingly difficult, especially one with this kind of mileage and ownership history. What makes this Mustang particularly special is its incredible originality. Not only does it retain its original factory paint and interior, but it is still equipped with its original Goodyear tires! This is an extraordinary detail that speaks volumes about the limited use and careful preservation this Mustang has received throughout its life. Very few examples have survived with their original tires still present, making this an especially interesting and desirable feature for collectors who appreciate true originality. The original tires are a wonderful part of this car’s history and preservation. The ownership history and documentation are equally impressive. This Mustang has had just one owner since new and comes accompanied by an outstanding collection of original paperwork, including the original purchase documents, original vehicle title, both sets of keys, and additional documentation. Having the original title and purchase paperwork provides a direct connection to the day this Mustang was purchased new and further supports its remarkable history. Finding an original 1985 Mustang GT with this level of documentation, mileage, and preservation is becoming exceptionally difficult. Michael’s Auto Sales owns this Mustang GT, unlike many of the “Dealers” out there. We invest our own money in quality vehicles. Unlike the large consignment dealerships that simply market vehicles for a fee, every vehicle we offer is carefully selected, owned by us, and thoroughly inspected before being offered for sale. Every vehicle at Michael’s Auto Sales has been inspected for safety and mechanical operation by a Licensed ASE Certified Master Technician. The exterior presents beautifully from every angle. The original factory finish retains an excellent shine, the body panels are clean and straight, and the trim, glass, moldings, emblems, and exterior details have all been exceptionally well preserved. The unmistakable Fox Body styling, aggressive GT appearance, and classic 1985 front-end design give this Mustang a presence that perfectly captures the golden era of American performance cars from the 1980s. The overall condition is exactly what you would hope to find in a carefully preserved, ultra-low-mileage original survivor. Inside, the original interior is equally impressive. The seats, carpeting, dashboard, door panels, headliner, trim, controls, and instrumentation have all been beautifully preserved. With only 24,554 original miles, the condition throughout the cabin reflects the limited use and careful ownership this Mustang has received since new. The interior retains the unmistakable character of a classic Fox Body Mustang, with its driver-focused cockpit, factory instrumentation, and iconic 5-speed manual shifter. The level of originality throughout the cabin is truly remarkable for a vehicle of this age. Open the hood and the exceptional level of preservation continues. The engine compartment is extremely clean and well kept, complementing the outstanding condition found throughout the rest of the car. Under the hood is Ford’s legendary 5.0L High Output V8, paired with the highly desirable 5-speed manual transmission. This combination helped establish the Mustang GT as one of the most recognizable and celebrated American performance cars of the 1980s. The unmistakable sound of the 5.0L V8, combined with the engaging 5-speed manual transmission, delivers the classic driving experience that made these cars so popular when new and continues to make them desirable today. Mechanically, this Mustang runs and drives absolutely excellent. It starts easily, idles smoothly, accelerates properly, and delivers the responsive performance you would expect from Ford’s legendary 5.0L V8. The 5-speed manual transmission provides an engaging driving experience, and the car performs beautifully on the road. It has just received a complete service, including brand-new spark plugs and ignition wires, ensuring it is ready for its next owner to enjoy. In keeping with the exceptional originality of this vehicle, the original spark plugs and wires have been retained and will be included with the sale. This is another great detail for collectors who appreciate preserving the original components and history of a vehicle. The 1985 model year is especially significant in Mustang history. It was the final year of the classic four-eye Fox Body front-end styling and featured the desirable carbureted 5.0L High Output V8 paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. These cars represent an important era in Ford performance history, combining lightweight construction, rear-wheel drive, V8 power, and a manual transmission into one of the most recognizable American performance packages of the decade. Included with the sale: Original Purchase Paperwork Original Vehicle Title Both Sets of Keys Extensive Original Documentation Original Spark Plugs Original Ignition Wires Additional Original Paperwork & Items The documentation accompanying this Mustang is truly exceptional. Having the original purchase paperwork, original title, and both sets of keys allows the next owner to appreciate the history of this vehicle from the very beginning. Combined with its one-owner provenance, just 24,554 original miles, original paint, original interior, original Goodyear tires, and retained original service components, this Mustang offers an outstanding level of originality that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Finding a one-owner 1985 Ford Mustang GT 5-speed with only 24,554 original miles, beautiful original paint and interior, original Goodyear tires, and extensive documentation dating back to new is becoming nearly impossible. Most Fox Body Mustangs were driven extensively, modified, raced, restored, or simply worn out over the years. Very few have survived in this kind of original condition, especially with such low mileage and a documented one-owner history. The condition and originality of this Mustang truly set it apart from the rest. This is not just another 1985 Mustang GT — it is a remarkably preserved piece of Ford performance history. From the original paint and interior to the original tires, documentation, and retained factory components, every aspect of this vehicle reflects the care it has received since new. It would be extremely difficult to find another example offering this combination of originality, mileage, ownership history, and preservation. Whether you’re looking for an exceptionally original addition to a collection, a beautiful weekend cruiser, a highly desirable Fox Body Mustang GT, or simply a classic American V8 performance car with a 5-speed manual transmission, this is one you won’t want to miss.
