Lotta nice cars out there.

Here is one that is catching my eye, chuck the hood, Cobra badges and B&M shifter and it will be just fine.
Its a little high but I am sure I could get them down a grand or so.

Shouldn't be difficult finding a stock hood with that color.

Is there something on the driver's side floor? Like some kind of connector or something?

Also if that Terminator bumper is in great shape you could get rid of that for some good $$$ if you don't end up liking the look of that with the stock hood.

I dunno whats on the drivers side floor, looks like a ****ty floor mat kinda.

I would keep the Termi bumper.
He has fogs and bezels in there at least.

I might try to work something out to keep the termi hood off my 01' and have a matching front end.

Thats if I even go after this one, its nice that its close to me, has a few mods and looks clean but Black isnt exactly what I wanted.
KBB also says that its worth about $4200 PERFECT without factoring in miles. :/


I also checked out Ebay, talk about overpriced...

Naw, thats not much for these cars.


Btw, I called the guy with the Stang above and he said he would come down to $4500, not bad really seeing the extra's it comes with.

He said the clutch engages really high in the pedal throw so I guess its going to need a new clutch soon.


He said he bought the car really only to resell so he doesnt know much about it, he is going to get me the VIN later today so I can run an AutoCheck on it.
Being that it has a new bumper, new headlights and a new hood I am a little worried that maybe it could have been wrecked in the front.

Is getting a mustang (5spd) and painting it SB an option?

Sonic Blue is a "BOMB" color

Naw, that would be a little too much money.

I got the VIN to the black car and ran an AutoCheck, it came back squeaky clean and rated the same 76 as mine did.

Of course the price is a BS price because I dont want people contacting me about it! lol

Damn. With that many miles, hopefully it doesn't look like it.

He said the bumper could use a repaint and the black hood decal is chipping, other than that it probably just needs a good buffing.
