bzeller -> Newbie - 89 Mustang 5.0 LX Hat (3/19/2003 6:53:10 PM)

Hello all! I just joined and I'm thinking about purchasing a 1989 Mustang 5.0 LX. The car has 127K miles with only one owner. He's an older guy and it looks like he took pretty good care of the vehicle. I drove it today and it ran strong. The body has some a couple small door dings and scratches but over all the paint and body are in good shape. The clutch has never been changed and I could tell the brakes and tires need replacing. Other than the power locks, everything else works including the cruise control. It's basically a stock 5.0 with an Alpine CD player. My experience with Mustangs is very limited and I have no real clue what a "good deal" might be. The owner is currently asking $3200/OBO. I was wondering what more experienced mustang enthusiasts might have to say. Before I buy, I plan on having my mechanic give it a once over to look at the brakes, clutch, master and slave cylinders, etc. Just to make sure I'm not dumping a bunch of money into the vehicle initially, or at least if I am dumping that money then I've reduced his asking price significantly. Any opinions on the situation? I look forward to many fun modifications and advice from this group! Take care, Benjie
