I'm looking at buying an '83 GT and have a few questions. My previous Mustangs were a '73 Fastback and a '96 Saleen S-281 so I have no experience with this era. I like the looks of this car and she doesn't have many problems with the body, just one area where it has a nice scrape with some surface rust on it. It has a v-8 with a 4 spd and t-tops. Newer exhaust and 5 spoke wheels. I don't know the mileage and he is asking $6500 for it. Is that too much for a collectible like this? Also, what are the major problems for a Fox body this old? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

 

Pristine, mint, no scratches or rust, low miles would be not quite $6500.
I wouldn't think of paying over $2500 but if you really like it, $3500.

 

well seeing hoe t-tops are really rare with the foxes i say 4000 would be my highest maybe 4500 depoending on the condition of course

if u can get siome pics itd be easier to let you know what the price range should be

 

Sounds a bit high for what you have described...but yes...pics would be a huge help here.

 

well based on my mustang which i just purchases a little while ago.. mine was pristine... no rust no scratches no nothing... never winter driven... never accidented... original paint... no dirt or rust under the hood... original mags in mint condition, and a sunroof... not to mention the underside of the car was complete factory silver... never even undercoated... Its 1991 gt with only 90000km which is absolutely nothing and i payed $6600 for it... so for an 83 gt im thinking 6500 its real high

 

oh yeh mine also came with a bbk cold air system with a k&N filter... so yeh im gonna really stick with 6500 being real high for an '83 especially based on prices i see around here

 

Seems a little pricey to me, but we don't know the miles...

 

unless it is perfect. thats extremely high

 

i agree with conv
