86 GT in running condition for $250?

[Mustangbelle306]

Um? I don't see the predicament here...running, not half rusted away V8 Mustang...for $250.

This is obviously your first Mustang, and you're complaining because its not an 87+??? Geez. Its called a front clip and moulding swap, especially since you said it needs a paint job anyways.

HORSEMEN: I think the 86 and older Mustangs could be easily considered more rare. Maybe not in collector value, but just for the fact that since they ARE older, there are more that have been wrecked, parted out, or devoured by rust. I agree with you about the 86 engines, but I think for 1hot5.0's purposes, that's probably not the biggest priority. If he can find a straight body, then that 150K original motor can be yanked later!
