Default Re: Is it worth rebuilding

The T-top cars are signficantly more rare than the 93+ Cobra's. Though they only made about 2000 T-top cars in 1987, they didn't come close to selling out. The 800 remaining cars were re-badged as 1988 models.

So there were only about 800 1988 T-tops ever offered for sale. If it's savable, the return on investment could be substantial... but then again, it'll probably be another 10-20 yrs before the 1987-1993 fox body cars command any type of premium for being a classic.

Don't ever buy a car thinking its a good investment unless its an old '57 vette sitting in a barn, type of situation. You don't fix them up to make money on them, unless you're in that business(they get the cars real cheap). The T-top cars lost alot of popularity when it became common knowledge that they leak. What it comes down to is how much it will take and what its worth to you. Expect to lose money when you sell it, realize that and just enjoy it while you have it.
