Nice, clean looking car. I am sure he spent the money, but don't know that I would pay $10K for it. Go down look at the car and make up your own mind. A good clean fox is worth $5K with great paint and a new top. The fact that is has a new Tremec and a new crate motor, probably another $3K. A dry kit is not a plus in my book and I see a compressor in the pictures, but nothing about the AC working. I would make sure it wasn't a 4 cly car. Don't get me wrong, as I have nothing against it. Just make sure it has the V8 brakes or you need to compensate the purchase price. Stopping the car with added weight and HP should be considered.
Over all, a car is worth what you want to pay.
One question might be why he would want to sell a car he just put $13.5 into? Times can get tough, but I would still ask.
Have fun!

No matter how much he has invested in parts and/or repairs/restoration it isn't worth anywhere near that price. He's just trying to pocket back most, if not all, he has spent on the car in labor. You don't get back what you pay in labor no matter the cost in upgrades and/or repairs. Anyone who modifies their car should know better than that when it comes time to sell. It's a nice ride, but I'd look elsewhere for a better deal. You'll probably find a car just as nice and faster for a third or half that price. "Crate engine"......might as well say a stock motor with aftermarket induction parts because that's what most of those FRPP short and longblocks are. Fast cars don't need nitrous. Let's see, what else can I criticize on......probably a tad quicker if it weren't weighed down with the audio craponents. No man. Call him back and tell him good luck on selling it. Oh, forgot to ad that putting SVT on a non-SVT car screams wannabe and embarrassment to real SVT owners.

helmut hit the nail right on the head. id steer clear. first if you notice, he listed the welds, radiator, exhaust, heads twice, i didnt really look to hard to notice that. prolly did it to make his mod list look longer than it is
second, if all the work was professionally done, why is the nitrous bottle installed wrong? if you mount a bottle sideways you are supposed to turn it so the pickup tube is to the rear of the car.
also i didnt see any real chassis mods, upper and lower control arms? battle boxes? torque boxes are prolly smoked, and you can get much traction with out control arms(just a shitload of wheel hop)
hell if youre gonna spend that kinda cash on a stang, ill sell you a coupe thats setup right for less and you can wax that gt's ass! seriously. pm me if interested
but hell if you want a nice daily driver, give him 5k tops!

personally i would not purchase that car based on who has done work on it. i have a Hatch stang that had work done on it at realspeed in largo, and most of the things that were done i had to go back and redo, becuase of incorrect installation. Such as gears, control arms, brakes, transmission. and so on.
