...as a project car?
a friend of mine lives in Tennessee and has a 1982 Ford Mustang GT for sale for $2000. It has 99k on the odometer, still has the 2bbl 302 under the hood and is rock solid, no rust. It does need some interior trim pieces (dashpad, rear hatch liners), but its in one piece, even the cruise control and A/C work!
Should I get it? I WANT it because I miss my 84 Capri RS 5.0L and the 82 had that 'look' that I think was lost as the car evolved through the years. I ran the numbers and I can afford another loan... i mean this car is pretty rare now.
