This car I can get for under $3,000. The price is firm, and I do have the cash. Heres a pic (small but it's the best one)

View attachment 493973

The car is flawless outside, but could use some weatherstripping.

Just seeing it...it spoke my name. Here's a list of the pretty extensive mods:

Rebuilt 302 with about 13,000 miles, Ported Stock heads and intake, 65mm Throttle Body, 75mm Mass Air, K and N Filter, BBK Long Tub Headers, Dr. Gas X Pipe, Flow master Exhaust, BBK 190 Fuel Pump, Competition Cam, MSD Ignition with Timing Adjuster, Under Drive Crank Pulley, B and M Ripper Shifter -- Adjustable Clutch Quadrant --Shift Light

Professionally Installed New Ford Motor Sport World Class T-5 Transmission with less than a 1,000 Miles and Rebuilt Rear End with Ford Motor Sport 355 Gears

New Ford Motor Sport Aluminum Drive Shaft

It has sunroof, cold AC, cruise control works but isn't connected. Anyone think this is a steal at under 3 grand?

Looks good to me. I would imagion there isn't any rust because of the location. I'd look for reciepts for all the work, if those are there, your good to go.

Check the torque boxes, with those mods, im sure its been raced, look for any damage (wrecks) in other words, follow the link the Sroth posted, very good info on there. my buddy bought his 90, and the carfax came bak good, but when we swapped the motor, we founf the lower radiator support was bent bad, which made us looked firther into it, and we finally figured out that one of the fenders was replaced. they did an excellent job with the fender, but didnt take the time to fix the rad. support

Sounds good.If possible,have a trusted mechanic do a thorough inspection of the car before you buy just for piece of mind so no possible surprises turn up after buying.
