why do you say that? You obviously have more knowledge then i do but its just the hood and fender i can replace cheap. and its running good? just exterior needs work. And right now mustangs are so hard to find at this time anywhere around my area. Iv been looking for ever.

Do you think it would be to much work to get it looking okay? or too expensive for me?

Looks like it will need an assload of work.. Id honestly keep looking. Unless youre sure there isnt anything else wrong with it and you talk the guy down a few hundred and put the rest into new parts for the car

I agree wholeheartedly. Take your $2300 and run from that thing like it was on fire...

Ok i looked up the inner apron. And yeah ill definitly take a look to see its not bashed in when i take a look tomorrow... and Thanks everyone for posting BTW your helping alot.

yeah Blade there isnt much around.. trust me lol. iv been searching online 24.7 for updates and this is the best iv found. The guy said he will take 1500! and i could go get a used hood, fender, and i would need a rear piece aswell.. Can you guys spot out what else i would need? other then lights obviously.

I just need a car thats running. i dont car about the exterior at the moment cause im gonna work on it and just get pieces from a wreck yard or parts car when i get more money.

What do you think?

If it runs and everything and if there isnt any hidden damage anywhere.. Id say do it. All you need is a new hood, driver fender, driver headlight. It would cost about 200 bucks for all that. Nothing too bad. I bought my car when it looked like a hump of crap but all it took was 50$ of cleaning supplies to make it look alright.

Edit: Also a gt spoiler which shouldnt cost much either
