Buying a mustang that has already been modded is very cost effective, You just have to be very sure that the person(s) doing the work did a good job. There are many more beat to crap, hacked mustangs out there then ones done right. Ask where the work was done, who did it, and get a feel for the owner.

I bought my stang for $6700 with no work done to it and 55,000 miles on the clock. I am the second owner and know the car was never beaten on mostly because i got to know the owner before I bought it. The only reason he was selling it was becuase the baby seat he bought for his expecting wife didn't fit in the back seat. He was very concerned that I would take care if it and it was apparent he took care of it like it was his kid.

An example of this was the rubber floor amts protecting the factory floor mats. The only thing "wrong" with the car was the ashtray door was kinda broken and the struts that held up the trunk sometimes didn't stay up. He GAVE me an ashtray repair kit, new struts, a $150 car cover, and new wiper blades.
