Default Yet another candidate.. 66' Coupe

As my hunt for the right Stang continues I find this 1966 Mustang Coupe. Wouldnt be paying the asking price though... but it was appraised at $16,000 +. How much would you offer?

I could see that car easily selling for 12-13k. Possibly the full asking price, depending on the market. That car has a lot of conveniences & modern upgrades yet still looks like a concourse classic as far as I can tell. If that car is close to you, you should take a look at it, it looks beautiful.

$14,500 is right on if you ask me.

Power windows, locks, steering. Keyless entry, alarm system...are you kidding me? Nice.....

I thought the same thing guys but this car has none of those things. power nothing lol, it would have a check next to those items if it did. I looked at the car and it is flawless with the exception of one paint blemish. NO rust, dents, dings anything. looks like it rolled off the showroom floor from the factory for the most part. Knowing that it doesnt have all those power goodies how much is it worth?

I'd say that it would sell for $12k-$13k, depending on how it drives. It looks like a nice car, I 'd say go for it if you can.

Looks like a beautiful car.

When you take a look at the car, pay close attention to the rear shock mounts in the trunk. I see coilovers on the rear shocks.

What should I be looking for when it comes to the shock mounts in the trunk? I have looked at the once and everything looked perfect but maybe I am overlooking something.

Did anyone else notice that the exhaust goes up from the muffler and dont come back down?? Where did the pipes go after pointing up just before the rear end??

Ive got to be missing something..

The tail pipes exit right below the rear valance. right where they should.
