5-6k? The value on these cars has dropped drastically throughout the years.

Find a donner car and vin / swap everything. [Razz]
But seriously it sucks seeing one of those wreaked like that. [Frown]

That shit is beyond salvage, you should make more parting it out.

Very sad to see it like this, one of 250 made, I couldn't believe it was a real one when I found it.

Not sure if serious? You can see the metal roof is fubar´d and not a soft top.

Wow, interesting find. What's the extent of the damage (other than the obvious)? It looks like it was t-boned by a big truck.

Doesn't look like its worth much

From the pics it looks like only the roof and passenger door are bent.... frame might still be good.

Hard to say from these pics from my phone [dance]

Looks like they tried the hard way to make a convertible.
1 of 1? [Razz]

Get it and use your 94 for the roof and door, then part the rest. Is the accident on record? I'd do some surgery for a rare mustang

i'd hazard to guess that a telephone pole or a tree fell on it looking at the damage.

only 250 made...I'd fix it! It's only sheet metal.
 
Posted by 90GTSleeepr (Member # 9609) on :
 
Fix it---!!!!!!
 
Posted by racsirx (Member # 1710) on :
 
Well, I do have enough parts to fix it, but time I don't have, I am just debating parting it out or EBay it, I just found out it was number 75 of 250 and was made 3/1/95

That is one of those cars that'll probably be worth more as whole than in parts.

Spend an hour on it everyday. Easier said than done though

If the frame is good fix the lower body panels and the windshield. Then chop the top off and go permanent convertible....

Yes on a trailer, lol, drove it down the street and on and off the trailer.

Looks like it should just buff out, most def Cafords clean! [Wink]
 
Posted by CAStang (Member # 9568) on :
 
I may have missed it, but I don't see any mention of the title status. But if the title is clean, rebuilding it would be the best path. However, if its salvaged I'm not sure what I would do. Whatever path you take, that's a hell of a find. Good luck!
