Pics would be nice. It really depends on the car for what it's worth, but once the car is in your possession, the sky is the limit.

thats really cheap... is this for a roller i.e, no motor/trans? does the car run? does the body look like swiss cheese?

need a lil more specifics... I mean, a barely running 5.0 stang with 300,000 miles on it and rotted to hell may be worth 400 dollars, compared to a mint garage kept one with 100,000 miles....

seriously. if this car moves under its own power... its definately worth $400.. even if it doesnt it might be worth $400 with a descent body

if it has a straight body, no rust or minimal rust, and can roll on its on its more than likely worth it

good price but a 84 is a NON- roller block, lower mpg and
slightly lower power?<--- need verification

there are conversion lifters and cams but at a cost. thats what I am running into

its a option on the 85 to be fuel injected maybe on the late 84's too but I think that the roller blocks didnt start till 86
