As far as mechanical, I already fixed a few things, it still has a exhaust leak which is annoying as hell, 1 of the header bolt appears to be stripped out.
as in the hole in the head is stripped?
I still vote fix it then flip it, no mods.
The general idea for the moment. :th_thumbsup-wink:Quote:

Finished painting the trim.
Put it up on craigslist for $1500, see if I get any bites.
1989 Mustang LX 5 Speed
Car sold for $800
:d
and right now some guy's on a forum going "look what i scored for $800!"
haha
500$ profit,not bad, I feel like you could've gotten more though from the right buyer looking to put a 5.0 in it.
I personally hate those mustangs, but the 5.0's CAN be so damn fast..
I probably could of.Quote:
