1991 Ford Mustang “5.0 Sale?”

The third-generation Ford Mustang arrived for 1979 on Ford's new rear-drive Fox platform, the same unibody architecture used by the Ford Fairmont and Mercury Zephyr. Its wheelbase measured 100.4 inches, longer than the Mustang II it replaced, and the lighter structure improved both interior room and handling. Launch engines spanned a 2.3L (140 cu in) Lima SOHC four, a turbocharged version of that four, a 2.8L (171 cu in) Cologne V6, and the 5.0L (302 cu in) Windsor V8. Stacked quad headlamps, called the four-eye front, identified 1979 through 1986 cars. The 5.0L High Output V8 returned the GT to genuine performance for 1982, gained fuel injection in 1986, and was rated 225 net horsepower after the 1987 aero facelift. Ford built this body in coupe, hatchback, and convertible forms through 1993, the longest single Mustang run to that point, ending with the 235-horsepower SVT Cobra.
