[J-rod]

Car is prob. worth 1500 - 1800 being mass air and black int. But is is a GT so that depreciates it a couple hundred

i talked to that guy through email also, he's been trying to sell it for a while. Said hes in need of money. Told me bottom dollar was $2200. Its worth looking at in person, offer him $1500 cash and see what happens.

that was my plan....i already got him lower in email :) plus im kinda pissed the AC lines were CUT at the fire wall and not just removed.

I agree i hate when people hack cars up, but it looked to me that the quick disconnect was still there on the evaporator. If this is the case you could disconnect the cut off piece, and replace the lines. If you end up buying the car and need a/c pieces i have a couple a/c systems/parts

You could prolly find someone to clean up those wheels for you. They look like they are spray painted. Maybe spray something on them to remove the buzzbomb paint job.

Let me know if you dont pick this up. I need to buy a Fox for my sister. She has an 87 Fleetwood (4100 :biting: ). I have put a Jasper 4100 in it 100,000 miles ago and I am not putting onther engine in it.

If he will sell it for 1500 cash it sounds like a great deal! And a lot of fun!

Its funny what you guys up north think cars are worth. Around here in VA Beach they go for a little more. Probably no less than $3500. When I lived in Georgia a nice fox body would go for $4500 to $6500 sometimes more.

Hell I sold my 88 Coupe rolling chassis and it was pretty stripped for $6500
(all he got was a suspension, brakes, interior and a paint job)

I offered my 1993 4 cylinder up for sale to someone on this board for $2500 and they basically laughed at me. There was nothing wrong with it other than a few door dings. I sold that car for $2500 recently.

I personally wouldn't buy a car from anywhere up north used due to rust.



Good Luck with the purchase.

thats why i asked local people....cause the market differs widely from region to region.

That was part of my point. My other point is just because people don't pay much for a rusted out weathered POS, they also think that is the going rate everywhere else.

Not saying your getting a bad deal. But if he is only asking $2200 It can't be in that great of shape. It looked wreck to me by the looks of that door. Just be cautious.

Also you said you planned on putting another $2000 into it. Why not just put $4000 into something in better shape?

No, just keep me posted on what you do!

wil do.....he said he has someone pending...but if not im gonna try and go sunday.


DING....because im a cheap bastid

you can pay now or pay later. i have learned from past experiences no more 1500 fixer uppers etc. by the time they are usually all straightend out mechanically and body wise to be presentable you have as much money in them as what it would cost to go buy a decent car in the first place

Now where's the fun in that? :D

There was a time when I didnt work 50+ hours a week. Durring that time, I built my 64......that was one of the best things I have ever done.

[PSPstang]

anymore time is money...i love to tinker and do little stuff but whole body paint jobs, bodywork and fixing tons of previous owners effed up mistakes got old.

I hear ya. When it comes to the old cars, I wont touch anything that has been restored in the past. My 64 was a rustless sun beaten 16,000 mile car that had been sitting since 66. My 60 has 35,000 and just needed painted (still has factory brake lines (scary)).

As far as Fox Mustangs go....it depends on what your plans are. If just trying to get a driver on the road one would be better paying 3-5k for a nice one. If you plan on going crazy e.g. custom notch, drag car, or show car then it may be worth picking up a straight 200k mile beat on car for 2k.
