Default pxdig search part II

Hello everyone,

Well the bad news is my 97 mustang blew the head gasket and I have no desire to fix it. so I am going to sell it to whomever wants it and begin the search for a 2005/6 mustang GT as soon as possible.

I have read the various posts and know to look for the leak of the master cylinder for the breaks, as well as getting an computer diagnosis prior to buying. Is there anything else I should look out for (other than the obvious) when making my selection? some of the late model GT can really get beaten up and since this is going to be a daily commuter I would love any input/advise you guys could give.

thanks is advance.....

aside from the obvious, one trick i've uncovered is to look for burned rubber inside the rear wheelweels. This is a sure indication that some one has done a lot of burnouts. People may clean the fenders, but few would think to clean inside the fender wells.

That's very true. Just make sure the car looks like it was well taken care of. If the car looks like it was neglected, it was probably driven that way too. The carfax report is probably a good idea too.
