THE BAD:
Nothing, really. The car is solid and drives like a dream. I lost my storage, and have nowhere to keep it. Would rather it go to a good home instead of rotting in the street, or some slimebag stealing it. And they’ve tried already. (See Below)

THE UGLY:
The car could use a repaint. The engine compartment was repainted by the previous owner and they didn't do a good job. The rear bumper, while white, does not match the rest of the car. The passenger side door has some rust starting on the bottom, and some worthless slime tried prying the passenger lock out with a screwdriver.

Asking $6000. There's more than that just in the parts I installed. Everything is new, with about 500 miles on it! Car is located in Northern NJ. Contact via E-Mail for quicker reponses, and I'll check back here occasionally.

I have other parts, and might consider a package deal. Need to inventory it all.

All of the above listed, *with* the car, and whatever else I have around for it, is $8000. That's the Car, the Motor, and the parts listed for $8000.

I won't sell separately. If the 'Stang doesn't sell, then I'll finish the project myself.

If nobody's interested in buying it, I'll keep it and finish putting the new motor in it. Not interested in a convertible; they suck for racing, both drag and road. Too flexible unless you stick a cage in it... But then why have a convertible?
