Gezus man, that's only the second one of these cars i've ever seen. That color...the name escapes me but i believe it's considered a yellow. The other one i saw was modded to hell and back in a magazine. That's a super rare car for sure. Worth anything....well, probably not a fortune but "someday" maybe.

Rare color. The interior is oem....the gt sport seats didn't appear in 5.0 coupes until 1990.

Very rare car in terms of factory colors. The wheels are wrong though. Should be 10 holes

6V is almost and there were 137 5.0 coupes made in that color

I think the tan interior in the aero cars might be even more rare than the 4 eye version. For what it's worth, the other car i saw in this color had tan interior too...it'd be interesting to see some other cars, to see if they came sort of as a package deal.

the older i get the more i like the tan interior, you can always pick up a set of 99-04 tan leather interior seats and bolt them in

The tan and black 4 eye interior is my favorite fox interior. It almost looks exotic.

the most info will be here or corral. there are a few other sites that are smaller but this is probably the most prominent in the east coast. I know because I am on the west and it is almost as if there are no mustangs over here (figuratively.)
