I'm buying another fox... how much can I get for my 89GT?

+'s
Motor seems fresh w/ a cam and stock heads/ explorer intake
Tranny looks like it's been put back together so must have been worked on
Will come with 17x9" Polished Cobra R's (have to switch over)
New Cobra Rear Bumper/Front Nose/Fender
Will come with 2 racing Seats not installed
Temp controlled Dual Electric Fan
New stock springs
Subframes
Flowmasters (dumped)


-'s
Does not come with 3" cowl hood- stock one going on
Fenders/bumper need lining up
Needs paint
A/C and Heat no worky
Needs Headlights
Needs Radio
Has noticable bondo (can be fixed with paint)



Basically it just needs an alignment and paint. I could even primer it- I'm sure that would help it sell. What could I get for it primered???

Definitely do a cheap paint job and you'll get much more. Most people won't consider a car that looks like Rubik's Cube.

Or depending who has the gun, it may be great for a full-on paint job for your intended show car

Dave...macco for you...dude as long as it looks good, it does not matter who painted it. Most every job looks earl shive untill it's wetsanded..even my wifes 04GT has LESS than ideal orange peel right from the factory.

That's just what I would be willing to pay for it. It may be much more valuable to someone else looking for a different kind of car.

Also, before you go the Maaco path, I would try to sell it as is. It would be great for someone that wants to paint it their own color. Once you paint it, the result is money out of your pocket and the buyers could be narrowed because of the color you decide on. I agree most people do not want a multi-color car but you might not get a whole bunch more for it once painted and then you're out money and trouble. Again, I would try to sell it for what you want, see how close you get to it and then decide if you should take the extra step and paint it. The expense will only go up from here especially if it needs body work.

I'm almost positive I could get $3,000 for it Primered this summer. I was told the motor is new and the tranny looks fixed. I'll fix the no start problem (It's the fuel pump or relay I think) and get the seats installed- then try to sell her. If that don't work Maaco tis or I'll keep it.
