Hi, I'm new to this site and I was wondering what my mustang was worth. It's a 1973 Mustang Grande with 16,000 original miles, original tires, 302 V8, and is in excellent condition. If someone would give me a ballpark figure what it is worth, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

Joe

sounds like you have a pretty nice car, low miles original

but there isnt a big demand for the grande's

now if it had a factory 428 in it, thatd be a different story

Here's a link to the NADA estimate....anywhere from 5K to 20K depending on condition....also, I assume it had A/C. Other than that I don't think anyone could give a better answer without more detailed info and pictures.

Try looking at ebay or some of the classic car traders online to see what others are selling it for.

Sorry, I don't really know much about that model but it sounds like a jewel. Welcome to the forum. By the way, my 65 was not driven much for the past couple of decades and when I bought last August it came with tires which looked brand new but were over 20 years old. I don't trust them at all. Also, when I actually started using the car some (about 300 miles worth)the cooling system let go and so did the brake system. Some parts need regular exercise to stay healthy.

First congratulations of a nice sounding car.

I agree with honeygold. I got my garage kept 66 with 72,000 miles on it. My transmission had to be rebuilt and my rear main seal replaced due to the seals rotting from sitting so long.

Be sure to check everthing from brakes and lines to fluid and hoses.

I am amazed by these low milage cars. Where did you get it and whats the story behind it?
