Hey folks,

Considering picking up foxbody Mustang to play with this summer. Not sure on budget yet but something $10K or less. Prefer something original and low in kms. Performance mods are ok but must still be considered a daily driver.

Key things I am looking for but will consider otherwise:

- notchback but will consider hatch
- lower the km the better
- must be all original
- no rust
- power group
- a/c
- manual transmission

Let me know what you have for sale. Looking to buy in the next 2-6 weeks.

Please e-mail pictures and description to: shaun.chaud@gmail.com or PM


Thanks in advance

 

Hope you find one and welcome. Hope to see you at the Deerfoot Mall on Wed's this year.

 

Hey thanks for the kind words... Should be fun. I use to have an 07 California Special just over a year ago and I'm getting that itch again but this time I am feeling the retro

I am hoping to find something at a good price so I can either supercharge or turbo asap. I've got my eyes on a '93 stock LX 5.0 notchback loaded to the **** with 220,000 on the clock. The owner is looking for $8K but problem is I don't know if thats a good deal or not so I am holding out longer to see what else pops up before jumping on the first thing I see.

 

Two years ago I noticed 2 Fox GT's for sale in Calgary with under 30,000 k and the best part is they were un-molested. I think the owners were asking in the 15-20,000 range which to me is fair. Keep your eyes peeled as I am sure there are low mileage Ponies out there.

 

I dont understand the logic. You want to buy a stock mustang at a decent price (you were considering 8k for one if it was considered a good deal. Sellers will say great price, buyers like me (though I am selling as well) will tell you a stock 20 year old mustang is NOT worth 8k. Then, you want to modify the stang for a blower or turbo application?

You do realize that you can buy clean foxes that are already done to the T for not much more than you are willing to spend. Heck, you can get clean mustangs with the simple bolt ons of exhaust, gear, frame connectors etc and save a FORTUNE doing so.

If you are planning to mod, do yourself a HUGE favor and consider buying a lightly modded fox. If you have 15k to blow or atleast plan to blow that, save a few more K and buy a Cobra.

Remember, people selling foxes generally sniff glue and price their cars accordingly. I have seen bone stock low mileage black on black LXs sell for $4000 that were clean and blew cold AC. Dont get sucked into over paying.

 

Interesting perspective... Let me elaborate a little further so you can understand my positioning.

As you will notice by my early post I have only ever owned a S197 so I plead some ignorance in the foxbody department so when I ask or wonder if $8K is a fair deal for that particular Mustang its because I naturally don't know any better. Sure being a car dealer myself I know that blackbook/wholesale on these cars is only about $1,400 if that but that not relavent in this case.

When I say I am looking for a clean, original car I mean I am looking for a car that is as close to OEM as possible especially esthetics. I am not overly concerned as whats going on the hood or driveline as long as its done right and proper. I don't think that such an un-realistic expectation cosidering what I have seen for sale on here in the past. My budget is limited at this point so I will have to work with what I got. Going from $10K to $15 and on to $20K is fair difference at this end of the scale. If we were talking $100K and $105K then I would see your point.

What I am noticing is a wide varity in prices with no real balance so when I perceive something to be a good deal I suppose I will go for it.

Hopefully I make a little more sense now Sorry for the confusion.

 

So many cars for a wide variety of prices for sure, again good luck.

 

Shouldn't be too tough to find and I agree, buy something that is already modded as you will save some cash for sure.

 

Well folks the search is over...
