Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and need some help. I admit, I've been mostly a chevy fan and have had many Camaros and Corvettes, however, I've always loved the Fox body Mustangs and feel they will be a great investment when properly preserved. Because I'm not familiar with them yet, I came upon one for sale I would like to buy but not sure what I should pay and if it would be a good investment so I'm hoping someone can help me. My husband and I drove a pretty nice 93 GT yesterday. It's that pretty blue-green color, all original paint (my husband is a bodyman so can spot bodywork from a mile away). Holding it back is an automatic unfortunately but it has been in the family since new. It was bought by a man at age 47 and he's recently passed so his widow is selling the car. It has every option except sunroof. It runs good, shifts right and everything seems to work. It was left bone stock accept for headers. Widow threw out original manifolds. It has 93k miles. An original Arizona car bought locally. Everything works but as my husband points out, these cars are old and wear is showing with some interior broken pieces, side door pockets shot, gray leather in really nice condition. Interior overall pretty decent. No door dings and paint showing its age but it has been garaged all its life and still good, however 1 year in the sun in AZ and it would be shot. The car is very original but on the verge as my husband says. She will take 4500 for it as storing it is getting too expensive for her. My husband thinks thats too much. She won't take 3500 for it. Is this something that would be worth investing in? and at what price. Anyone?
