Hey that's a cool ride perhaps you could live in it.
By the way there is a shadow of you in the fifth photo. Are you Darth Vader?

Cool Darth Vader's mustang is for sale? That shadow is pretty funny.

Don't sell the car, you will kick yourself as soon as you are sitting in your new house with no toys in the garage. Your car is done now, it will be much more difficult to start and finish one once you have a house payment.

Very tastefully done, lord vader

I can hear Padme now, "Look Annie, I know she's the fastest heap in the galaxy, (I know, not Vader's ship) but if you don't sell that thing I'm gonna teach your son to join the light side of the force."

Vader: "Babe, but it's now more powerful than I could have possibly imagined!"

As for pricing, you need to watch ebaymotors to see what similar ones are going for, or http://www.cars-on-line.com/fd13_60-69orig.html or right here http://www.dealsonwheels.com/popular/index.cfm/vehiclemodel/Mustang .

Hope that helps . . .

Joe

Kudos on a great looking ride. As for it's worth... something is only worth what someone else will pay for it. Start high and work down.

thanks for your kind words. As for the selling it I have to. I want to buy a house. There will always be room in my garage for a project of 2. But right now I have 4 cars, so this one has to go anyways. Any ideas on where i should start on the price?

its true, its worth whatever someone will pay for it. blue book will be a range from like 5 grand to 27 grand so that tells u nothing. start somewhere and see what happens. u need to try and recover some of your cost. it really is up to you

Funny...I thought Vaders car would be black? Huh? I was ROTFLMFAO when i saw that!
Man sweet car. I have an idea on how to find out what she's worth. List it on Ebay with a really high reserve and see how high the bidding goes? If it goes high enough to which you would accept then remove the reserve and everyone is happy.
What do you think?

I've been stacking reciepts on the work bench for months(i'm afraid to add them up)... Add yours up and add 1 dollar for every hour that you spent working on the car, In the end that fugure will be higher than you will ever get back out of it, but damn it looks great!!
