yeah well I do kinda dig it, but do you think my top offer should be only 7500 or 7000 or even less. Nada classics has it appraised at between 6 and 10,000.

Car is in really nice shape but hard to sell because of the ****ty paint scheme. I bet he could get $7,000 if he found the buyer that agreed with his particular tastes.

that red interior is aweful!

4K tops. the stock 86 5.0 heads are less than satisfactory.

Bottom line is if you like it a lot and you are digging the car and you think the price is good you should buy it. You have to do whats right for you and what you like. Then you are the only one here that has been right up on the car. Sometimes pictures hide the bad or don't do the car justice. You only get to go around once in this life so do what makes you happy.

It's not a bad looking car. everyone has their own taste, but I bought a very clean 94 with just as many things done to it, if not more. I paid half of that. Look around some more, you never know, a sweet deal could be right around the corner!!

REALLY? even with 36,000 original miles? the interior is in mint condition, he is the second owner and the car wasn't even plated from 96-2002 it has just been sittin stored away. Im glad you guys have opened my eyes and I didn;t waste my money. Have you see what the fox bodies are being sold for? you cant find one in this kind of shape for under 7500, are all of these over priced? even if the car has over 13000 in brand new parts you guys dont think this 86 is worth it?

more pics of the car before it was painted and during
