Need Help Guys!

Been awhile since I've been on this board. Long story short, I sold my 07 GT a couple of years ago to get as much money as I could out of it right before the new body style was released and in preparation for starting a business. Wanted the cash for emergency funds - just in case things didn't go well... Painful decision, but I have kids to protect and take care of..

In any event, I am looking at 2006 GT and not sure if it has frame damage. car was in a front end collision, supposedly minor, but there appears to be a crease in the unibody under the hood, right next to where the stock airbox sits. It is basically at the forward (front) most part of the side edge of the engine compartment, right before the opening begins to go across the front of the car.

So, I'm asking for pics showing that part of the engine bay opening for comparison. Preferably on a car which is not dark in color, as body creases don't show up well in photos of dark cars...

Thanks guys - much appreciated

If you have dobts about that car I would pass or you will always be thinking about it. How many miles are on it and what is the asking price

I agree. Too many Mustangs available for sale to be thinking about buying an 'accident' car. Why have a potentially poor ownership experience. If the price is too good to be true....
