NOOOOOOOOOO Don't sell it.......For the love of god man do not sell it.......

I have no clue what it would be worth but I will say it is a great car. Best of luck.

Man you will regret it...

 

[maverick169v]

i know i will. and i dont want to. its just a combination of things and it may be the car or some other things i dont want to part with. i dont want to get into it but im sure you can figure that much out. ballpark idea? anyone? you wont offend me.

 

[Gibs]

If I was to guess.....I would say 13-15K just based on the market right now......My reasoning for this is that you can get a termy for under 20 if you look hard enough....... I am no expert though....Just my .02

To get that range you will need a Mustang Hobbyist though, the normal guy will try to get you below 10 for a 00 GT.......

You might do better parting out the high end stuff and returning alot of it to stock and selling that way....

I'll tell you what...

I was really admiring this car when I was making your sig. All those photos you sent me had me admiring it, really!

I don't know what has come up to make you consider selling it but if there's ANY WAY to not sell it...do it. This is one awesome car and I know you'd be heartbroken if you had to say goodbye to it.

It is ovbious that a lot of effort, time, care and money has gone into the BOOSTFIEND.
Don't giver her up unless you have to!

yeah i know. its caused a lot of problems at home. i dont know when to stop with this thing.lol. i got a photoshoot next weekend and i will post those up. if i end up actually having to get rid of it i will probably be teary eyed doing the photos. ive had mustangs all my life man. this one means the most. i got about 3 1/2 years under the hood and it was a bone stock plain jane gt when i picked it up. i did everything to it, most of the work like 90% i did myself. its seriously a part of me. not to mention some of my buddies got more time under this thing than most people do there own car. ive got somewhat of a pit crew. look on racelegal like 2 weeks ago, thats the dude that put the blower on with me, changed the trans, got a buddy who welded up my exhaust, subframes and installed teh engine with me. i really hope it doesnt come to it.

this was the week i bought it i miami back in 2004.

first time at the q




heres a few before the paint job, and then an early configuration before it became what it is now.

dude ive got a photo album like it was my first born child. its putting a lot of strain on the wife and as much as i love it its obvious which i would choose. its my own fault, i dont do anything in moderation. she is tired of hearing "babe, there is no doing it medium, just BIG" lol. i thougt it was clever, she didnt. we are talking about it. she wont tell me to sell it but i think it might be time to move on. if we talk things out and set a plan i will try to keep it but im just bracing for impact now incase i have to let it go.

 

[GT400SC]

Man, work it out somehow! Don't let this car fall into anyone else's hands.
They won't take care of it like you have.

 

[wickedstangs]

that why before I got married, manny moon's ago, I told her about my passion for Mustangs would never die. And If she ever interfered with it she's would see the highway real quick.. That is why she supports the hell out of me. Need to get them involved and bring them to all the events, whether they like it or not..

 

[maverick169v]

yeah i know. shes supportive, she doesnt like how much money i spend on it. bad news is that as long as i have thats what i will do. its gone from hobby to OCD addiction. ive had teh blower a month and im already looking into a forged motor and more boost. and it took about 10 days til it wasnt fast enough. now when it puts down 370rwhp in 105 degree heat, thats not enough for me.lol. when it made 401rwhp at night time, it wasnt enough. when i beat something i want to run something faster. i beat a termy, i want a vette, i beat a vette, a want a new vette, i already have a burning desire to break my father inlaws heart ( hes got a gen 1 viper).

so its not that she doesnt support it, shes a realist and sees things in black in white when i obviously look at the situation more favorable than her.

 

[GT400SC]

Listen to her. Maybe slow down a little. Keep 'em BOTH!

Sorry to hear that. Right now is the worse time ever to try to sell a car. I also thought about selling mine but I wont give it away. You should not either. Plus most of the Finance company's are not financing personal auto loans. Capital one was one of the easiest to get and they dont do it anymore. Good luck I wish you the best.

 

[Roushed2]

Id say keep it but a realistic price for it is

11-12k

Miles hurt it bad especially being supercharged with those miles.

thats the killer, motor and trans have around 50k on them. cars been supercharged for a month. i might be alright having receipts to back that up though.

 

[beejay31000]

stop being ridiculous. keep the car and stop throwing money into it. then she will be happy, and you will be happier than if you sold it. in the end if you sell it your gonna loose all the money you put into it

 

[maverick169v]

its not a sure thing. its apossibility.

 

[beejay31000]

i'll give you $50 for it

 

[Roushed2]

yeah the only thing really keeping value up on it is the blower. Most people will see the miles and say hell no. But Hey just keep it
