1986 Ford Mustang

Gateway Classic Cars of Atlanta is proud to present this 1986 Ford Mustang SVO. The Mustang SVO is a limited-production version of the third generation Ford Mustang sold from 1984 to 1986, during which time 9,835 examples were built. Although it departed both physically and mechanically from any prior version of the Mustang, it held the same spot within the lineup, both in terms of performance over "lesser" variants and in prestige, as had variants such as the Shelby-tuned and "BOSS" Mustangs of the 1960s and 1970s. Ford began to make a major push forward with the Mustang in 1982, nearly completely reinventing every aspect of the vehicle, which included putting a new emphasis on the model's sporty nature. Just prior to this, in the fall of 1981, Ford decided to form a division that could oversee both the company's racing program and the production of limited-edition, high-performance, street-legal vehicles based on or taking technology from the race vehicles. Officially, the division was called the Special Vehicle Operations Department, but the public came to know them as simply SVO. Powering this mustang is a 2.3 liter turbocharged inline 4 200 Hp @ 5000 RPM and 240lb-ft of torque @3200 RPM from factory. Backing this engine is a 5-Speed Manual Transmission. The Posi-Traction rear end has 3.73:1 gearing. Interior was only available in charcoal grey (leather or cloth) and features included adjustable sport seats with lumbar supports, a leather-wrapped tilt steering wheel, shift lever, and emergency brake handle, power windows, door locks, air conditioning, and a premium stereo system, options not normally found on small American coupes.

Options on this 1986 Ford Mustang SVO include: Air Conditioning, AM/FM Radio, Cassette Player, Spare Tire, Lumbar Support, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Power Locks, Power Windows, Jack, Spare Tire, Tilt Wheel, Seat Belts, Cloth Interior, Radial Tires, Alloy Wheels, and Posi-Traction.
