Default maby buying a 4 cyl mustang

Hey everyone i have a question, my friend has a 4 cyl mustang that was hit lightly in the front i mean light it need a headlight and a hood it got a lil bent. anyways he said he would sell it to me for $250, the car is in ok shape, a lil surface rust on the top around the sun roof but nothing major, my question is would it be worth it to buy it fix the light and hood and sell it? if so how much could you get for a 4 cyl in ok shape? thanks

a litle more money involved...but if you piece together everything for a 5.0/t5 swap you could make some coin.

especially if you build it up a bit....get an 11 sec timeslip out of it, and you could sell it pretty ez w/ not much care that is was previous 4 cyl.
