  • Picked this up last week

    After several years of regretting selling my old 86 SVO, I finally pulled the trigger on another 86.
    Found an Oxford White, Leather, Bi-wing delete 86 that is in VERY good condition.
    Other than the radio and the exhaust, it is completely stock. Lesson learned last time & this one will stay stock! Next one will get the go faster treatment.
    It still needs a real good paint detailing and some small stuff, but I couldn't pass on the deal.


    Here is the link to the pics. Enjoy and let the broken down, won't run, headache issues, etc... SVO comments begin. I fully expect them.

    Nice looking svo. I always loved those cars. Add titans number to your phone though.

      No original wing, no care.

      It looks like it's in good condition, though.

        That is original. The top part could be deleted.

          Don't read much. It clearly states bi-wing delete.

            On one hand I "kind of" agree with you. It is odd walking out and seeing an SVO with out the bi-wing. That is 1 of the things that make it different from other fox bodies.
            That being said, in 86, out of the 3300 made there were less than 300 made with the bi-wing delete option. Add to that it has leather and it is a very low number production car.



            So where as some "no care" others see a very rare optioned car.

              I wished my 84 had the delete and almost took it off several times over the years, but looking back I'm glad it had it. Nice car man. Hope your Tripe A is paid current.

                  Very cool.

                  I had an '84 that had already been gutted of its 4pot, so I had a mean little 302 in it, saleen wing (came that way), momo wheels, leather, roll bar, etc.

                  I still hope to find another some day.

                    Agree! Cool car, man.

                      A car that was ahead of its time. I'd recommend a wheel update.

                        Definitely ahead of its time. 31 years later Ford brings back a 2.3 turbo in a mustang!!
                        I'm going to keep this one as close to stock and original as possible. So the wheels will get polished out, but they are staying.

                          im not sure why, but a turbo 4cyl has been on my mind a bit lately.

                          god bless.
