Default 89 gt

ok i've been in the market for a stang and i found one on craiglist. needs some cosmetic work and it needs a new engine and tranny. its what i've been looking for so i don't have to fix someone elses screw ups, only my own lol. heres the link to it

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/car/221921548.html

also do you think that price is too much for it? if so how much do you think is it worth or how much should i talk him down? what about the thing on the driver side door (look at picture below), not sure what its called but how would that be fixed? also do ya'll see somethings that need to be fixed just to make sure i didn't over look anything. thanks guys!

Its actually not that bad of a deal. To be totally honest, if the frame is straight and theres no rust I would jump all over it. Of coarse try to talk him down to %$500 though but I would buy it for 750.

It needs some work but if you have the time and a little ca$h to spend buy it.
It not that bad of a deal. You wont find many fox bodys for that price. Like they said offer $500.

Yea, its a pretty nice car. And if its been on the market for that long I think he will definetly take less than 750 for it... if hes dropping the price that quick seems like hes itching to get rid of it.
