That is a project car in need of dull resto, yes fastbacks are popular, but you will spend another 400 on it!

Did you phone for a price, Andre? Or is it just a guess?

Phoned him, guy called Derick.

R100 k atleast over the top IMO, and it is still Zim registered.

He did import quite a lot of parts according to him. I was told it only needs a paint job. It is clear coted to keep the "Patina" and prevent rust. Blue seems to dark to me as per normal though.

Car is apparently driveable with 351 motor and 289 included.

With the greatest of respect, if you believe you can get a Mustang Fastback from the USA for less than R400 K you are dreaming.

If you can find one - you will pay R300k plus for even a very tatty one that needs a lot of work and you still have to get it here. Don't forget
not all Mustangs are sold sitting next to a dock in a port. It can cost thousands of dollars just to get it to a place for shipping.

Prices have soared in the USA in the last year - even for coupes.

The fact this car is still Zim registered creates more problems.
