Im looking at a '73 Mustang Grande with a 351C V2. It says it has 34k miles and it is the orgional engine TYPE i just dont know if its the same engine. Body looks solid 1 spot of bondo and one hole on the floor pan. its been sitting for 6 months now and ive gone up every month and had the guys selling it start if up for a few mins. thers some rust in a few spots like the rear window and the interor is dicent needs some vynil work and new "oh S#^*" handels but they want 2500 for it and i need to know if its worth it. if anyone would help me with anything to do with this year Mustang i would GREATLY appericate it.
I have more pics if it would help and i can put them on here or i can email them.

Id say that as long as it isn't eaten up with rust, a grande with a 351C is well worth $2,500

It sounds like it could be a possible good deal. I bought my 67 for about the same price and it had a lot more problems than you mentioned. If those are the only rust spots and it doesn't have any, or just very few, mechanical problems, it sounds like a deal. You can always find replacements for rusted parts of these cars. But of course you should take a much closer inspection of the body for rust and take a look at the engine too.
