1988 Mustang - Total Modular Conversion.

The only thing on this car that is Fox is the chassis and body panels. Everything else is from a 2003 Cobra or custom made.

Car has been driven very little since completion. I am selling because a property has come up that I am interested in and I need a down-payment.

There are simply too many mods and too much work done to describe here. Look at the pictures, and if you know what you are looking at and are seriously interested, shoot me a message for a detailed description of the car and all of the work that has been done.

I will not entertain lowballing or test pilots. All test drives will be supervised at all times.

Must be seen in person to truly appreciate.

Thanks for looking.


$28,000

I'm at a loss for words on the interior....

It's actually a very nice car that's victim of some very unfortunate paint work. Somebody loves it, though...

The paint, the wheels (they don't belong on a fox Mustang), and the hood.  That price is ridiculous.

Paint it with some Grabber Blue, switch the interior to gray and black, and I'll trade those wheels with some 17" Bullitts, and that'd be my dream Stang. Oh, you can keep the Cobra spoiler too.

That car is saveable, but it would take a lot of work. Repaint, get the puke green out of the interior, change the headlights, remove the wing, and different wheels that aren't sticking out past the fenders. And the price is insane, it'll never sell when you can just get a 2003 Cobra for 10k less.

it may look ugly, but id have the stupidest smile driving that thing around with how much HP. I wouldnt pay 28,000 though.... Id say 15 would be more realistic.

Well I like the engine.

That being said he probably wants $28K because that's what he has into it. The rule of thumb is that when ever you restore/modify a car you never get back what you put into it.
