What would you pay for a 89 GT that has sat in a driveway for about 5 years? Decient shape with little rust? 5 speed. Clean interior. What would i have to look out for with a car thats been sitting?

 

it probly has bad brake lines , probly bad fuel lines , if it had gas in the tank it is bad , has he moved it any in the 5 years ? been started any? i would check into some of this stuff. i would give no more than 2500 but i am a cheap 'o

 

Yea its been moved Little.. And has been started ( not sure how much though)

 

Mine sat 4 years.. I paid $1700.. I believe the son started it up everynow and then though. I bought it from an older lady that took it from the son cause he owed her money.. It had 92,000 miles..

Here is how it was

 

Looks like a good deal.. Was anything rotted because it sat? I will be sure to testdrive it.. I just want another mustang wile mine is becomming a show car.

 

Yea good question.. On mine the only problem i had with rust it is that where the sway bay attaches to the body is rotted (driver side). So im prob gonna take it off for now until i get it welded.. Its a common thing with these cars cause my welder specializes in mustangs and has done this a numerous amount of times.

 

The lines where good and all that cool.. i will make sure to get under it and what not drive it.. i dount even know if he will sell it i hope though cuz i hate seeing a musting just sit around.

 

Good luck..Hopefully you get it

 

i'd be worried aboout gaskets and the tires.

 

After 5 years sitting I would give 1K
