First off, paint bubbles suggest rust. Expect that going into it.

That said, it sounds and looks like a verynice, cleancar. The minor rust should be fairly easy to repair. Pony interior cars are rare, as are factory a/c cars (notice i said factory, not dealer; there is a difference), plus the added value of all the other options. Rarely do I endorse picking up a Mustang for the sole purpose of turning a profit...but this sounds like a really good deal.

Make sure you run the VIN and warranty plateto check some of the options though. You can't get a Marti report on it, but you can at least check to see if it's mostly original.

Yeah, forgot to mention, slowly pour a bucket of water down the cowl. If any ends up on the floorboards, drop $3k from your offer. That's how much a realistic cowl repair costs=/
