in my search to find a T5 and related parts, i found a guy who has a complete setup from an orginal mustang (toploader 4 spd).

he said i could have everything for 1k. would it be worth it getting this setup or going for the t5? i wouldnt have to worry about any incoviences (driveshaft,cables,linkages) with the 4spd, but i wont have overdrive.

what do you think?

You could probably piece together a 5 speed swap for the same price.I used 4 spd linkage and my same drive shaft and starter.I have the 5 spd bell housing with fulcrum and new tranny crossmember

There is no such thing as a good USED 4-speed.....go with the T-5.

Exactley WHAT 4-speed linkage did you reuse on a t-5 conversion?
