Default Lost my job...need opinions on what to do with the 5.0

Hey everyone I lost my job recently and am contenplating selling the 5.0. I definetly dont want to but I feel like I might have to as the bills are piling up. The car is as follows...

1991 Mustang GT (black)
5 Speed
36,000 actual miles
Brand new Cervinis 2.5" cowl incuction hood (needs paint)
underdrive pullies
mac off road H pipe
flowmaster catback
new ford racing clutch
gray cloth interior is in good shape
CD player

The car could use paint as it is faded and the black trim is faded as well.

The picture is from before I got the new hood. The new one is not painted.

What would you guys think I could get for it?

It matter how much you like your car. I thought about selling mine when i was pissed off from losing a job, but i love my car and im keeping it forever. So, if you wouldn't miss it you could sell it, but then you might not get enough money to make it worth selling.

I love that car...I just need money to pay some bills and get ontop of these credit cards. What would your best guess be? I just want a ballpark.

I would say somewhere between $5000-$7000. Only knocks on the car would be the paint and the new clutch with such low mileage. I'd be skeptical if I were a buyer so that could effect the price.

Yeah what mjr said, lol. Well I bought my 90 with 146000 miles for 3500, it has very little rust and was in good shape otherwise. You should get at least 5000 for it, IMO.
