Spend some time looking, and find one that is NOT a rust bucket. If you fix up a rust bucket you still have a rust bucket.

Take it from someone who used to fix up rust buckets for a living.

I procrastinated on a ‘67 Mustang coupe last fall.

The owner had put it under a tarp and condensation had its way with it. The interior was really bad - but he had a brand new complete interior kit for it. 351W and 4-spd.

The doors were rusted shut - I was afraid that I would going to destroy the doors trying to open it. I knew that I would have to remove the fenders and pull the doors, then pull and replace the hinges. I was very reluctant to start in on another rustbucket - especially for that price.

He was asking $4k. I offered $2k and he gave me the pained expression before shaking his head no.

I put out a couple of casual feelers but he wasn’t budging. Well, I found out this week that he sold it. He got $1800 for it.

Rats.
