    Picking up this car tomorrow, 1993 Mustang it has a 2.3L 105 hp I4, and auto trans, the lady said it needs a rearend and brake line, I went and looked at the car, it is leaking from the cover plate on the differential and the rubber brake line is split on the front driver side.....I am giving her what she is asking....$300.00, this car is in amazing condition for a 93 and runs great, the A/C does not work and the front bumper has a slight hole in it but that and the above stated other problems are all I could find...tires are great, interior is super nice and exterior is clean and I could see no rust! more pics later when I get it home.

    The mav is gone but i'm still here!
    $300???? You could sell it for ten times as much over here!

    Looks awesome! I've been wanting a 4cyl fox body for the longest time, but they are crazy expensive here.

    Enjoy that car (y)

    Needs a turbo or two. Then you will have a NICE car!

    How hard is it to drop a 5.0 into those? And don't they usually have 4-lug wheels?

    I always liked them, and would throw $300 at that in a second.

    Well it is home now....more pics, I can't find any rips or blemishes in the seats, the tires have 90% tread, very little rust, some peeling paint on the plastic side moulding and thats it! runs great just needs brakes and rear diff. gasket.

    My dad has a '92 LX 4-cylinder convertible and I really like it. We lowered ours with an Eibach Prokit suspension kit and put 15" wheels with low profile tires on it. It handles SO MUCH better than it did with the old suspension and the same wheel/tire combo you have, and accelerates a little better with the smaller wheels (though the speedo is, of course, not accurate). Great buy for that price!
