88-89 5.0

[Tyler5.0]

I was driving by a local car dealership when i saw a blue 5.0 and went and looked at it and there was a little rust due to salt on the road and some dents on the unibody. The guy said $1731 for it. Is this worth it?
Thanks

how's it drive/ go down the road? that's the biggest part.. also make sure the floor pans aren't rusting out..

sounds very cheap to me... most people selling 5.0s ask 3 times what they are worth.

only if you look at online/etc places.. in reality you can find a very solid mustang fairly cheaply.. (but you have to check out cars on the side of the road, and wait til the right one rolls around)

yea you can, just in our area its extremly rediculous what they try to sell them for...

Well I just got my 5.0 today for $1500, only thing wrong is that the speedo and Odometer dont work, and the dash lights are out, radiator has a leak but I am gonna get that fixed next week. Runs great, transmission leaks but I was given another one with a TC and shift kit that doesnt leak. Oh and the wing is gone on the hatch. I have had it for an afternoon and it is calling me from the parking lot.

What i want to know is, why 1731? Why not 1700, or 1750?

If it has too much rust on it then I would pass.
