Ya man, your gonna have trouble finding one with little work needed for less than 3500, but they are out there, i got mine for 3200 and it's just about immaculate.

I am selling my 95 for 3500 will need very little work after I finish working out the bugs of the new engine. You can find some decent fox body mustangs for cheaper but you have to look.

You can find some real nice 4-bangers for the price you are willing to spend. While you are saving up for that V8 swap, you will enjoy dirt cheap insurance and decent gas mileage.

I already told him.
He thinks he is gonna find some dirt cheap 5.0
And he claims he did find a few, I saw one but it didn't say the miles either, so ya know.
Honestly you cant find anything decent under 3 grand now, u CANT.
unless some 80 year old lady is a moron and gets rid of one thats it.
YOU WONT, YOU CANT.
