Default worth it?

I was lookn around for POSSIBLY getting a foxbody mustang (to either fixup alittle and resell for more, or drag alittle for fun...) and found this one on autotrader...

http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...T&only_price=1

i dont see 5.0badges or gt on bumper so im guessing it was an LX originally but dropped new motor+ some?

lemme kno wut u guys think...

((flower seats FTW))

Why isn't the hood hinge on the passenger side bolted on, The top bolt on the AC compressor (not sure why it's still there since lines have been cut) is missing, K and N sticker with a paper air filter element. As long as you don't have emission check in your area, you should be fine (looks like the smog pump has been pulled). Structurally, looks like a good car to start with (and I'm sure someone with a conversion van will want those wheels so you can throw on some 15" Welds). Definately worth the $1900 just to have a weekend racer.

i dunno how much more ud be able to sell it for. as for what needs to be done id just call him up and ask. from pics, noone is gonna be able to tell u that.

couple guys around around my way are in the 13s with stock motors. (foxes) theyre lighter then sn95, so thats a big plus. good gear, tire, and driver can get u there.
