Could ask at least $10k, but it would have to be a "Felony." At least he has a 500hp clutch.

Well, dude, I guess sometimes you just gotta take a dump. Somebody told me once that there's no such thing as bad publicity. This things been on top of the list for three days now!

Clean 5.0, but that price is way too high.
Don't take this the wrong way...I understand it may be your baby, but to most, its just another 20 year old Ford.
Even in "excellent" condition, KBB lists the value under $3,000... the mid "mid 5,000" range seems a little unrealistic.

Haha did you reference KBB when talking about a fox? ![[Roll Eyes]](rolleyes.gif)
With original black interior this thing is definitely worth at least $5k

Understood, i know the interior is rare. i wasn't trying to be rude or anything... I'm just saying it's high for a 20 year old FORD....and the black interior means very little to me if its not in good condition.
Any pics of the interior?? Also, do you have a couple more shots from different angles of the exterior.

Hey...the way the world seems to work these days, everybody wants to beat you down on the price. I figure that if I start out in the mid-fives I'll end up with offers a lot closer to the range that I actually want to let the car go for, and the person who buys the car will walk away with a real sense that he got a bargain because I worked with him on the price.
$3,000 is way too cheap for a car like this. I've ridden in some of the $3,000 hoopties out there, and this car is a hell of a lot nicer than any of them. Also, most people who advertise original mileage near 100,000 have cars that end up having twice that when you actually run the Carfax report. Trust me, I ran the Carfax on four other foxbodies on Craigslist when I was shopping for this car...three of them had rolled over once, and one had rolled over twice.
As I said in the ad, this car isn't perfect, but it is close. It's got some little dings and scratches, but there is no trick-photography in this ad. From 5 feet away this is an absolutely stunning car! You have to get right up on it to pick out the little defects. I'm sure that some of the folks on here that have seen the car in person can chime in and tell you how nice it really is, and not a single one of them has seen it in person since the last time I detailed it.
The interior of the car is in really nice shape too. It has some wear, but not a single tear anywhere, and it is an original black interior car. The driver's seat does have the "5.0 Ganster Lean" thing going on, but I picked up a new seat frame and will either get it replaced or adjust the price accordingly. One other thing that I should note, I had this car up on a lift, and I went under it with my flashlight, and there is not one single crack anywhere in the floor pan. This is the fourth foxbody I've owned, and every one of them had some cracking that had to be repaired, either around the seat mounts or the seat belt anchor point. This car has NONE!
I am attaching some interior shots, and one of the motor. If you really like the car, come and talk to me. My asking price is in the mid $5k area, but remember that money talks. Just don't come out here thinking you're going to drive away in my car for any KBB price.

People will never understand that these 20 year old plus cars hold they're value and will out run any new performance car with just a few bolt-ons.
Good luck with you're sale and $5k you're asking is an excellent price...

I should also note that it kills me to have to sell this car. If it wasn't a necessity (i.e. recent lay off/divorce), it wouldn't be leaving my collection.

I never implied your being rude. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
Also the color of the interior is just an added bonus. Even if it had titanium interior it's still worth more than the KBB figure. KBB is for normal everyday cars like a honduh or something. A very clean stock fox, I think, is a collector item already. It's very hard to find one.
Also if it's just a "FORD", then why are you on a "FORD" site? Lol We love Fords and the way you say it puts down Ford
Who cares if it's 20 years old. According to your theory a 67 fastback is worthless at this point because its 42 years old...Age doesn't mean an elephants giant turd when you talk about Mustangs.

Relax man, i'm didn't want this to turn this into a pissing match. Honestly, I used the KBB reference for multiple reasons
1) The ad was written as if it were for someone who knows nothing about cars. Mustang enthusiasts searching for this particular car know what the car is and don't need the embellished description.
In most cases, they only care about the straight facts and the condition of the car.
2) The car market in CA is insanely saturated with 5.0 mustangs, and the economy is not exactly conducive to consumers purchasing 20 year old gas guzzlers.
3) I am very interested in purchasing another mustang, and as a potential buyer, i wanted to see the seller's reaction to my post.
To Casey90GT, great looking car. Thank you for taking the time to post up additional pictures.
