So I found this "1990 Mustang GT Convertible with 68,xxx actual miles. This is a 25th. Anniversary Edition with logo's and original paperwork and window sticker where purchased new from Gresham Ford. It is black on black with the injected 5.0 liter (302) Auto. Loaded with Power Windows, Power Locks, Power Mirrors, Leather, Lumbar, Air Conditioning, Intermitting Wipers, Remote Truck Release, Power Top (with boot), This has not been abused and is in original condition. It even has all the original factory stickers on all of the fenders, hood, trunk etc.. Still has the original AM-FM-Cassette that works. I have changed the battery, Wheels and tires (Cobra with less than 500 miles on them) and Headlights (still have originals) Has never been in a wreck and i have a clean carfax report. Starts and runs perfect every time. I have had this stored in a climate controlled shop and hope to find someone interested in taking care of it." The guy wants $7500 for it and i'll obviously have to go look at it before I make a final decision but I thought you guys might have some input on weather I should consider this or how much I should actually ask for it. I'll put up some Pic's.





He posted lot's of pic's with it but for space sake im only going to post those. the body seems to be straight and the paint is good.

what grover said. thats way tooo high for a AOD vert. some more pics would help too, its kinda hard to judge by just an engine pic and interior pic.

I'd offer $6000 and see what he says--though some exterior shots are needed to judge better, the interior and underhood look pretty good. I personally don't care for AODs, (they're fine for cruising around town) but you could modify it to make it a real performance tranny.

Though it is low mileage, $7500 is a bit high, unless the condition really warrants it.

I would sooner buy a stick shift coupe in worse condition with more miles on it for $7500. Sure, its in great shape, but as far as desirable aero-nose Foxes go, an AOD 'vert is bottom of the barrel.

I guess it is worth what you are willing to pay for it. I bought my clean 01 GT for $7500. Now they go for around 5-6000. food for thought.

Defintely a nice looking car.

I bought mine last April. It's an 87 GT vert. It had 91,000 miles on it. I got it from the original owner. I paid $3700. All it needed was a few trim pieces and new carpet.

Yeah that seems to be the only downside I can see so far without actually seeing the car in person or test driving it.
