Look for rust, leaks, and as goodyear mentioned, get the CARFAX. The 87-93 models you referenced do not have a fastback model, only coupe, hatchback, and GT. Also, keep in mind that those years did not come with 5lug, any 5lug 87-93 you find will be aftermarket, so you'll want to be sure it was done right the first time. I knew a guy who bought a coupe with 5lugs and the tie rod came off a week after he bought it while he was driving. if you have any doubts, bring it to ford and have them inspect it. I have my 95GT for saleif your interested. Good luck.
