Is it worth it?

[wmd2_108]

I'm looking to get a car to rebuild and a 1972 Ford Mustang has been offered to me for a little over 5k... Now the inside is torn to crap and the outside needs quite a bit of work, but the engine is fine. Would it be worth the 5k or what should I be able to get him down to...?

Thanks for your views all...

From what you described about the condition of the car, it is not worth 5k. I dont know if you want to restore the car to its original condition or if you want to customize it with a bigger engine etc. if you want to restore it to its original condition then the parts might be worth more to you, depending on how hard they are to find, but if you are replacing most of the car then its not worth 5k. I wouldnt pay more than a grand for it.
