The thing is that the car fax report says it was in a wreck, a minor collision. I am sure this would be worth some money in stock form because it is so rare but since this guy changed evrything in it even the seats it is probably worth no more than a regular gt right or wrong? And to have all of this stuffdone alrady you don't know the quality of installation. Anyway myquestion is what would you guys do??? all opinions welcome!! Thanks

doesnt look like a bad price to me.. I personally prefer doing the work myself.... thats half the fun of it.

if you dont snag that 95 your a fool.

95 BLOWN GT

i would go with the 95. but it was probably ran harder. are you mechanically inclined?

Go for the 95 and ask if he has any of the original parts for it. Just in case you would want to put it back to stock but it sounds like it has a great parts lists. Test drive and take it to a reputable shop for a mechanics opinion. Good luck.

the 1995 has 120,000 miles on it, 9k on heads and 4k on tranny. it has a 4 point roll bar. i would like to do the stuff myself, but i was just thinking that this would be a collectors item. you think that this would be a highly sought after car because the low 499 released? i was alsmot thinking of changing it back to stock and buying a junker gt and putting all the parts on it. what you think about the collectors side of it??

i've never heard of a hard top convertible 95 that came from ford...
i'd assume if it was really the case, there would be ford documentation of it.
otherwise, for 3k any trim/body shop can do that

Just google it. there were 499 of them made in 95 it is documented

Hmmm, yea i dont know about the hardtop vert thing??? But if it is true it would probably be worth alot more in stock form. Even so, 9k seems like a good price for the 95
