Need opinions on what my LSX Mustang is worth...UPDATED WITH PICS Just like the title says. I'm looking for opinions on what my lsx powered mustang is worth. I just finished it and really dont wanna sell it but it's looking like I may have to due to my not working right now and having 4 little girls - the bills are stacking.
Here are some details on the car and swap. Everything was done right. I don't feel I cut any corners.
1990 Mustang LX Coupe (dark grey)
Motor:
04 5.3 longblock 40k miles
Heads - milled and light portwork/cleanup. Valve job with new seals.
Patriot Gold dual springs and retainers.
Comp Cams Custom Grind -
Comp Cams pushrods (not the cheapies)
Factory MLS Head gaskets
ARP Head studs
LS2 Timing Chain Set
Fbody Oil pan/Pickup
All gaskets replaced
99 LS1 intake manifold and TB
F body accessories
Large Aluminum aftermarket radiator for C5 Vette w/ C5 Dual Electric Fans
Truck Coil Packs
Custom Made 1 3/4 Longtube Headers w/ 3in Collector (not bastardized shelf headers)
Full 3inch exhaust with venturi style X pipe and Magnaflow mufflers
Fuel System:
Sumped factory tank (used Competition Engineering sump kit)
Walbro 255lph HP fuel pump
Earls -8 prefilter
ProStar Filter after the pump (huge)
Feed line is all Aeroquip -8 pushlock line
Return line is 3/8 factory GM Nylon line from the rail to top of tank
Fuel system now will support 550rwhp - add a second Walbro pump and a Y block before the filter and you have enough fuel for 1000rwhp
Transmission/Rear End:
FLT Built 4L60E
3500 Stall TCI Billet Converter
TCI Deep Transmission Pan
B&M SuperCooler (largest one they sell)
Custom Steel Driveshaft with HD U Joints
B&M Pro Ratchet Shifter
Built ford 8.8
3.27 Ford Motorsport gears
Yukon 31 spline Axles
Ford 31 spline trac-lock differential with extra discs and heavy spring
Complete rebuild - All bearings and seals are new
Suspension/Chassis:
Maximum Motorsports HD Rear lower control arms
Ford Motorsport Rear Upper Control Arms
Maximum Motorsports Front Coil Over kit
Maximum Motorsports Caster/Camber plates
Tokico Illumina 5way Adjustable Struts and Rear Shocks
UPR Chromoly Tubular K Member
MMR Tubular A Arms - W/ New Style Ball Joints
Maximum Motorsports Extreme/HD Full Length SF Conn. (tig welded/painted)
Full 5lug Suspension Conversion - SN95 front Spindles and Hubs, 03Mustang GT Calipers and Rotors up front, 03 Cobra rear Rotors, Have the 03 Cobra Calipers for front that will go with car.
98 Corbra Wheels and Tires (Nittos)
Have 2 Extra Cobra Wheels with Mickey Thompson ET Streets(26x11.50/16)
Full 6 Point Cage/Rollbar 1 3/4 tubing-Removable Door Bars - NHRA Legal to 9.99ET
Car is fully tuned ready to be driven anywhere. It put down 356RWHP and 333RWTQ thru the auto in the Phoenix heat (about 113 that day) I've had an absolute blast driving it the last couple weeks. With the power on tap and how light the car is I imagine it's good for 11's as it sits - may find out this weekend. Probably more I am leaving out but the majority of it is listed.
So what do you think it's worth or is a fair asking price?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
Dave

OUCH! LOL
I will let you know once I come up with a figure. I will get some pics taken today and post them tonight. I have 5k into the suspension and chassis easy... Not trying to get rich by any means as I know I'll take a loss on this project but it's worth a good bit more than 5k.

I was thinking ebay may be good place to sell it. Never sold a vehicle on evilbay, just lots of parts and small ticket items.... None over a grand or maybe two thousand.

Updated with pics. There is a small dent above the driver side rear wheel and the black trim is starting to fade on the rear bumper which is very common on these cars, other than that it has the small nics and scratches an 18 year old car should have. Pretty clean overall. Could use a paint job but wouldn't say it's at all in "bad shape".
