It seems like so many are missing the MAJOR point about these cars. Once cars hit the "30 years old" mark they are never priced like they were at the 5-10 year old mark. That's due to so many people wanting to relive their youth. I'm able to look back at 50s/60s cars that were $1500 and less in the early 80s and are now a $25k and up car now. And I'm talking they are in SAME condition they were back then. We all want a piece of our youth but you gotta pay to play.

@adamrushka8096 9 ай бұрын

Yup, bought my first old car in 1994. 74 Chevelle for $500. Followed by a 69 Road Runner in 1998 for $1800. In 2001 I bought a 70 Cuda with a 440 for $7000. Old cars aren't cheap like they were.

I feel very lucky. My friend had an 86 GT T5 that has been sitting since 2006 with about 80K on it. I had the same car but AOD in the early 2000's that I totaled and had a bunch of parts still. I bought his for $1500 with all the parts (mostly wheels) that he had 2.5 years ago. It didn't start and needed some work. Just to get started was Battery, Cables, Fuel Pump, and Oil Change (fuel filter and tank bushings while I was at it), but it ran. Finally got to work on it the past few months and got rid of the oil leaks. Now I have to bleed the brakes and throw some of my suspension parts on it. After seeing this for $3500, I can get about $5000 easy, but I'm keeping it as long as possible.

@ferdinandcuevas8457 there is ZERO rust on her my good man. The little things I'm referring to are.... The power windows. I'm not 100 percent certain but I believe the window motors are bad for the windows won't go all the way down. The hatch won't stay closed, typical Fox problem. Where you put the gas nozzle in leaks, another typical Fox problem. She still has the factory interior in her. But unfortunately the carpet in the front and the hatch, and the front seats need replacing. The good things is the dash, the headliner, and the factory kick panels are all there and look brand new. The back seat doesn't look like anybody has ever sat on it. She's got cup holders "bought from LMR" but I have the factory center console and yes the ash tray lid still works. I'm not gonna lie or make up a bunch of ridiculous B.S about the car. Is she perfect? Well no of course not. But the old girl is mostly original and you can drive her while you fix the little thing's she needs👌

About 10 years ago my 17-year-old son purchased a 1991 LX 5.0 convertible. From what we can tell it was originally registered in Hawaii, then in Alabama, and finally in Southwest Missouri where we purchased it. It is totally rust free and now has just under 200,000 miles on it. Over the years we’ve replaced some of the suspension parts, added subframe connectors, replaced the exhaust system, etc. Next on the list is a replacement of the interior upholstery and the foam seat on the driver side. About a $1500 project. I don’t know what the cash value of it is, but when I drive down the street or pulled into a parking lot the looks that it gets are absolutely priceless😂

If you can't swing a Fox Mustang...check out their brother the Thunderbird. Rides better, tends to not be abused, takes 80% off the same parts, doesn't attract "5.0" attention when you're out on the road enjoying its potential. My 1986 turbocoupe was nearly invisible to police but my 1986 GT Mustang was always being followed by cops trying to find an excuse. And you rarely see one at cruise nights, so you don't have to spend a lot of dough to stand out with one.
