This is the classic pony car with a very different attitude. The 1986 Ford Mustang SVO took an American muscle icon and added a dose of energy pumping turbo power for a rare package that will make you realize this is a rare value-priced sleeper. We all wanted more power in the 80s but we werent sure if some regulations were going to outlaw our favorite cars. Ford decided one way to approach these unsure times was with a traditional V8and#44; and cool limited edition turbo car that was lighter but made the same power. The guys at Fords Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) developed this limited edition coupe that carried the Mustangs fastback styleand#44; but with some very distinctive touches. Its instantly recognizable as a special car with features like a unique front endand#44; offset hood scoop for the turbos ram airand#44; and dual rear spoilers. All of these unique elements are present today on this fastbackand#44; and they look great against the factory-correct 2A Bright Red paint. When these special SVO cars were newand#44; they were about double the price of the base Mustang LXand#44; and so you can understand that this is a rare model with only 3and#44;382 produced in 1986. Just like the exteriorand#44; the interior shares many premium Mustang GT elementsand#44; but has enough unique pieces for the SVO to be all its own. It starts with the exclusive sport bucket seats with added adjustable supportsand#44; a cool SVO three-spoke steering wheeland#44; and a Hurst short throw shifter. Because this came at a premium priceand#44; it also came loaded with features. This includes power windowsand#44; power locksand#44; electric rear defrostand#44; digital clockand#44; and provisions for air conditioning. Theres even a newer AM/FM/CD stereo with auxiliary input to play all of your modern tunes. Its a true drivers car. Thats why you get the full gauge packand#44; including large tach to make sure you can see when this turbo motor really catches its breath. The advantage of getting a car from the SVO team meant it was built by engineers who wanted to make the best performance machine around. Thats why this special Mustang is much more than just bolting on a turbo. We believe the 2.3-liter turbochargedand#44; and intercooledand#44; four-cylinder engine is originaland#44; and we know its both smart and tough. This is a computer-controlled unit that was given beefed-up internals to handle even more boost than the engineers were dialing in. Ford liked to tout that this turbo motor was just like a V8and#44; and there were not far off considering this Mustang made as much horsepower as it stablemate 5.0 GT. But what made the difference of the SVO was that it had a true European flair on the road. That comes from features like the four-wheel disc brakesand#44; Koni shocksand#44; McPherson strut front suspensionand#44; and quad shock rear end. Plus there were other great driving features such as the Borg Warner five-speed manual transmissionand#44; versatile 3.73 rear gearsand#44; and power assisted rack andamp; pinion steeringand#44; Complete with original title documentationand#44; this 2nd-owner (who just rescued it out of the original owners garage) SVO remains a lot of funand#44; and the price for this low batch collectible cant be beat.
