Wondering about this Mustang?

[MY 85 GT]

On my way to work i see this really nice im saying 90 Black GT the car looks in very good shape .Today one of the guys said to me did i see that GT i said Yeah its for sale i was told He wants 2k for it...Here is the catch it has 250,000 miles on it...Is it worth that much also how much longer will the 5.0 last? I dont know if it a autor or stick i thijnk im going to go look at it...I might want to sell mine and go into a newer body style.....

depends on the condition of the car. for 2k if the body and interior look good I would buy it and either part it out or drop a new motor tranny in it.

The car is an 88 and i found out its an auto too..Body looks in very good shape didnt see the interior yet i'll look at it after work....

If the body and interior is good then depending on how the engine/trans works you could possibly get it for less and spend $300 to $600 for a decent to built stockish engine and drop it in and be good to go.. just make sure you check all the normal spots like under the hatch/doors, torque boxes etc

Yeah thats not a bad deal im thinking im going to go look at it later i'll post back my results...

i say get it and if you're thinking of selling your current car, swap the motor and trans with the 88 and just get a little less out of selling your car.

yea i agree with other people on getting it if the outside looks prety gud (check for rust) and u can find a good priced engine for it and tranny. Also check if its black interior, cuz i think those are a little bit rarer, but im not sure i mite be wrong.

I think its grey...Yeah i would rather just sell my 85 GT...whole...to be honest with you...drive that one till the motor is done...meantime i could look for a decent rebuilt one or used one....Now anyone want to buy my 85 cheap....

Don't let the miles scare you. My Capri has over 250,000 miles on it and still runs strong.
