I paid a lot morefor 70 fastback - probably overpaid but body failry solid, motor & trans good with presentableinterior. I've got another 8K invested in it not including paint. I'm in Indiana also, if you don't buy it - let me know I'd be interested.

well i am going to go take a look at it sometime this week and ill try and take some pictures. From what my friend says and her dad says it ssounds like a really good buy. My friends dad is very very pick about cars and haveing rust and watnot and he had nothing bad to say about it. He went to see it himself. As for the paint. I know a guy that can cut me a deal and i can get a good paint job for less than usual (around 1500 or 2000). So as for now no new information on it. I getting really excited about this. I have had my current mustang for over a year and im just about to the point where i can drive it (just gotta change a gasket on the tranny) If i get this car i would finnaly have something i can drive on the road and show off. I guess the real problem with deciding is buy the mustang and spend some of my cash, or save my cash for college lol. But i guess i can rationalize it and say its an investment. If i run out of cash i can always sell the car for more but selling the car would break me heart lol. O well

Ill keep you posted

heck I paid 5500 for mine, damn if the boss didn't have a 1 mustang rule I'd be all over that, and I'm still trying to convince her an 03/04 cobra is not really a mustang.

13K. the body is really straight and only 1 or two minor rust spots. Fenders have no damage watsoever, origional engine and transmission, origional interior (which is still presentable), and the car just wasn't screwed with by previous owners.

we probably slightly over paid, but I have seen stuff much worse sell for much more. and with a fastback you'll never loose money....so its always a good investiment in a way.
