Well I posted it up for sale too so I could be sure that I would have it sold For the Mach or the Black one that is close to me and I have gotten a TON of interest at $5250.

I am a little bummed out though because the guy with the Mach 1 isnt returning my calls, my friend doesnt know whats going on it him and my wife doesnt want me buying a Roush that came up for sale that I have been wanting for years. :/


Here is my CL ad that I put after I got the first offer.

Let my car go for a little test drive today.

A Family is wanting to buy my Mustang for their 16 year old son as a present came to look at it. They are coming back tomorrow to drive it again because the Father didnt get to come out today.

I told them my price was firm at $5250 and they said it was one of the best taken care of Mustangs they have looked at for him and have no problem paying my asking price.


My wife is giving me two options, buy cheap locally or wait till we get back to California this August and buy one out there.

I was hung up over that guys Mach 1 but I just have to forget about it because he is just another flake.

I hope your able to sell it And get that Mach 1 or whatever next mustang your looking at. If that family doesn't buy it by chance wouldn't be interested in selling that cobra hood?

Whelp I sold her.

I get to keep her for about a week more while the new title comes but she is sold.

$5250

They said that she was the cleanest Mustang they have looked at yet and complimented me for taking such good care of her.

Talk about tugging on your heart strings, but $5250 + 75 I made from the original silver hood, thats $5325 when I only paid $2200 for the car so I guess I cant be too hurt.


I havnt really seen anything that I am too interested in and the Black 2001 with the mods sold so I might just take this money back to California with me.

Lame. It's yellow...all yellow cars are lame. Lame lame lame. And gay.

It looks clean, though...see if they can provide you with an assload of pictures.

Have you checked out the prices of Mustangs/Cobra's in California?

I am guessing your car is yellow... lol
There is a 96' Mystic for $8k up north of here but thats a bit much for me, at least with this guys price I have a chance of getting down to around $5k.

I e-mail him but it was a little too late to call.
I asked for pics and possible vids, we will see where that goes.

Its such a clean Cobra too, best seats I have seen of the ones that I have been looking at. Usually by now they are pretty flat looking or rough.


As far as prices go back home in California, I havnt been checking enough but usually prices are slightly cheaper out there because its Mustang central and clean cars are easier to come by too.
