Been getting the itch for another mustang lately, I go back and forth on getting a newer body style but I always come back to looking at fox bodies. Came across this ad and liked the looks of it. I e-mailed the guy and he supposed to be sending me some underhood pics. Opinions?

I want to measure mine. It doesn't look that tall.

I think he's a little high on the asking price, paint could use a good cut and buff, but if it's solid it looks like it could be a good platform to start a project

I seem to be having trouble (at leats locally) finding a stockish car under $5500 which is why I wanted to check this one out. He says it has functional heat/air. When I have asked other people about the A/C on cars they have for sale they say "oh yeah it just needs a charge" which translates to it's busted. Only two things i'm not crazy about are 1. The red interior, but I could deal with it if it is all clean. 2. That red stripe.

A little high, but over all not bad.

The fact that it's a hatch back, with **** red interior would be a deal breaker for me....but if that's what you're looking for, it might be worth a look.

Man...around here that's a bargain. Junky 5.0s with a million miles still bring $3000. If it's in your budget I would buy it and move forward.

I'm growing fonder of red interior. In certain cars.
Stripes I will hate until the end of time
