Default may have to sell

there has been some restructuring at my wifes work and her position was eliminated. i may have to sell the mustang to free up some money. my wife is not for selling the car after seeing what all i has been done but it may come down to it. i thought i would get yalls opinion on what i might get for my stang.

my sig. pretty much describes the car but there was much more done to it that it would be hard to list it all.

any input would be welcomed.

thanks

I personally think this is one of the sweetest cars on here. Looks wise. I do not know much about all the other work done to it but I always liked your look.
Can not give you an estimate but just wanted you to know its one of the better looking stangs.

Nothing is a for sure thing, so don't take this as a set price. I would guess you could get $25K give or take $5K depending on the complete overall condition of the car and the selling price of toys in today's market, blah blah blah.............Hopefully you won't have to sell it. And good luck with your wife's job search.

thanks for the compliment and the humor... she got a laugh out of that too! i was thinking around the 23-25 range myself but i have personal attachments to it. we are going to wait a little longer before making a decision. she is really against selling the stang. aside from that, she is also very supportive and a great blessing to me.

Beautifully done car, you must not be in the Nashville area, I would have remembered seeing that car at shows or cruisins as i would have drooled over it. Hard to put a price, as you said you're attached to it. It's really going to depend on what the potential buyer will pay, but I'd start looking at comparable ones selling on fleabay to build a price range.
Good luck and hope it doesn't come down to that.
Jon

Yea if I had 25k sitting around I would buy that. I would think even in this economy you could get 28-30k for it.
Your wife must be awesome if she let you do all that work to the car. Takes a lot of time and some money to make a car that cool. If I were you I would wait it out a bit. That car is like a family heirloom.
