question about a mustang ....

[Mozzstang]

I am looking at buying another mustang even maybe to re sell ? not sure yet.

Heres my question to all the mustang guru's..

I have a buddy that needs cash and has a 1983 mustang 5.0 convertable and he wants to sell it for around $2500.
everything works , after market exhaust , new white top , good tires brakes ect. ect. has new paint but not the best in the industry but still looks better then the origanal , about 75 - 85K miles.
do you guys think its a good deal or what ? dont need bashing just want to know if thats a good enough deal to jump on it or not , I see them on ebay going for big bucks sometimes.

Check the sub frames and floor real good. How's the interior?

 

[Mozzstang]

5 speed , floors real good , sub frame connectors and lowered. interior is fine and black leather.

Sound like a solid deal. Check around the strut towers as well. Spend a little time by the torque boxes too.

 

[PrjctLxEnvy]

yeah sounds like a pretty good deal,

 

[Mozzstang]

ok I will check it out better of course and most likely buy it , maybe try the forums or ebay to re sell it.
thanks guys for all your help.

looks like an LX I believe.

Im not sure if its the Gt , cause they mainly looked the same that year , I would however like to know if it has the higher horse power motor , there were 2 offered that year and im not sure which one it is but I will pick it up tomorrow and go through the whole car and find out more , from what I have been seeing , I cant find a nice stang vert for under the 3500 mark thats in good shape anyway and driveable today.

leather is rare for the year. looks like a good find.
