I bought a 94 with 141k miles... its got 157 now

just remember... mustangs are one of the easiest and cheapest cars to fix/modify.

Just make sure its not leaking anything excessively, or smoking alot.... take a good listen to the motor, make sure the tranny shifts smooth... just get a feel for the car

How much is he asking?
If it's clean it is worth doing a engine rebuild anyway and a tranny rebuild

I don't know how you can tell what parts have been replaced, but if the car is in good shape (and you'll have to verify that, yourself), it's fine to buy a 5.0 with that many miles...depending on the price.

just look at the floor pans really good and make sure there is no rust. look at the hatch area as well for rust.
