Just in case it gets deleted,



Hello My name is James. I am trying to sell or trade me 1993 ford mustang with a 2.3L engine, with a 5 speed Manual Transmission. With the famous foxbody calypso green.

First off this is a so called "project car". It runs and drives. I've had it since November of 2011.

Starter is starting to go out.

Engine and transmission runs strong.

There is a dent in the driver side hood.

There is a dent in the driver front fender.

Neither of the doors have door panels.

Does not have Driver door.

Passenger door does not open at all.

Passenger side rear quarter is where all of the damage really is. It just mostly looks bad. The Fender is curled inside due to scratching of tire.

Hatch opens freely. The locking mechanism broke, and i wouldn't lock all the way so i took it off.

Trunk had been stripped to metal like the doors.

Also the right rear taillight has tape over it.

I would not mind trading. Doesn't matter on what type of vehicle. I really need to get this car sold.

Avoid scams, deal locally! Do NOT wire funds (Western Union, Moneygram). Beware cashier checks, money orders, shipping, non-local buyers/sellers. More info

I'm just surprised the engine can roll the rear axle over enough to make that burnout happen. However it does seem to have an extended amount of !delete mods done so its probably pretty light.
