This 1988 Ford Mustang GT (VIN 1FABP42E1JF213970) is essentially a new car, having rarely left the very showroom it’s photographed in, and showing only 134 miles on the odometer. A triple-red 5-speed example, it’s said to start, run, and drive well despite nearly three decades of sitting. Sale includes all original paperwork, including the window sticker showing a $14,644 MSRP. Though it might be healthy enough for a quick blast around the block. ideally this one will need at least new fluids and tires before finally adding some long-overdue miles. Find it here on eBay in Red Bud, Illinois with a $23,500 BIN.

The seller says that this car has spent almost all of the past 28 years in the same spot of this climate-controlled showroom since first delivered on 5/14/1988–28 years ago almost to the day. These factory turbine style alloys seem to be a bit scarcer than the more familiar 5-spoke OEM wheels, though both look good. The car’s condition doesn’t really need to be commented on–it’s basically a brand-new 30 year-old car, as is reflected in photos.

Aside from a few black plastic items, cabin trim perfectly matches the exterior, in both color and condition. While the cabin isn’t shown in any closeups (apart from a shot of the odometer), but obviously everything looks very, very good. It probably still smells of gassing petrochemicals–or more pleasantly, “new car.”

Rubber looks a bit aged, but then again none of these hoses have done much recirculating over the past 28 years, and as a result should probably be replaced prior to any real driving. Interestingly, the AutoCheck feature in the ad reports four records on the car’s history, though a full report is not included for free.

Mufflers and exhaust tubing look like new, but what appears to be surface rust is visible on the filler neck and lower shock mounts. Despite this and some light dirt on the underside of the fuel tank, the car otherwise looks very clean underneath.

Check out the window sticker below. It claims 16 miles per gallon in the city and 24 on the highway, while the original MSRP totals just under $15k. Note the original dealer’s address, which matches that of the seller’s (apart from an East/West discrepancy) as listed on their site linked in the ad.

$23k is a fairly big chunk of change, but we’d much rather roll this off the dealer lot than any new car available for the same amount of cash. Pristine or not, it’d get some miles, too.
