    I have my 69 F-100 for sale for $2000. This guy has a 72 grabber that he wants $800 for and that price is fine by me. He is wanting to trade me the maverick and 3 mustangs for the truck. I figured I would get your opinions on this
    Mustang 1
    64 1/2 coupe. has a 260 auto in it. The body is pretty good. It is strait but will need floors. Still has all interior with bucket seats and aluminum wheels. It would be a great parts car or decent project for someone
    Mustang 2
    65 coupe. Has a 289 3spd. The body is rough. It would be a parts car imo.
    Mustang 3
    65 Mustang Coupe basket case. Has a 289 auto in it. Has some rust in floors but fixable. It has no interior. It would be a good parts car imo. I would keep the maverick and the 65 mustang with a staight shift. I figured I would get your opinions on this. I would list the 2 mustangs for around $1250 but take $1000. I think its an ok deal but I am still a little iffy on it. At first I told him I wassn't interested in the mustangs and it looked like he lost his best friend. I am going to try and get either a wrecked fox body mustang or an old 70's f-350 in the deal. I think he will do it

    I would do that deal in a heartbeat. I may be interested in the 64 1/2 coupe if you got pics of it.

    he doesn't have the time to fix them or a place to. If I trade I want to sell the mustangs to get some money up. 2 are buildable but there rough

    They're all buildable. There is almost NOTHING you can't buy new for those cars. I'd do the deal without thinking twice. Ebay the Mustangs.

    does anyone have a guess on what the 3 mustangs would be worth. I am keeping one set of frame stands but thats it. If I could get $1500 for the 3 I would be happy

    You can get more than $1,500. I sold a 65 coupe bottom totally rusted no motor or trans. The car was from IN. I did have some patch panel, for $900.

    you wouldn't happen to have a pic for reference would you. Ideally I would like to sell the mustangs to build a race mtor for my maverick

    If you do trade, I might be interested in the 64 1/2 or more. Depends on if my income gets back to normal soon. Right now, no money for extras, just barely making the monthlies.....

    right now I am on the edge. I would have to get $1200 out of the mustangs plus $100 gas to break even. If I can get something else in the deal I will trade but right now its real close. I am an expert of beating myself in deals

    Pictures of the Mustangs would help. I'd say you shouldn't have any problem getting at least $500 out of each of them if the VIN's are intact and everything.
