Default asking to keep eyes out

I went to the dealer to finalize a deal on a 93 Mustang GT yesterday and it appears the car was stolen off the property Monday night. It is a White 1993 Mustang GT, the passenger door nad rear Quarter panel are primed charcoal black as the car was being prepped for new paint. The car has a 5 lug conversion done and has 98 Mustang GT rims on it. If anyone sees this car PM me.

Thanks
John

Got my deposit back on the car but this was going to be my daily driver and Bone Stock 5.0 manual transmission Mustangs are not easy to find with less than 6 or so owners, this was owned by the same person since 1994 and that was why I was looking at this specific car.

not a big deal. I had not 100% bought the car, gave a deposit whick I have got back. It just sucks that I found a better than average car with less than 90,000 miles to have it dissappear. Maybe it was a good thing, money I can now use for my brake rotors and having the new diff completed on the S sooner

Good golly. You can't get a break on anything Mustang related man. Maybe sell all that stuff and start fresh with a different kind of canvas?

An old man once told me (yes, he was even older than me...LOL) when it starts out bad, it's going to get worse. I have found that to ring true many times. However, wish you luck in any case, will be glad to help out when the canvas comes to fruition.

Seems like it john. I have completely striiped the red 67 (glass, headliner, door hinges, you name it) and I will begin making calls to get rid of that. The blue one will be stripped of the parts I can use (moro, tranny, seats etc) and Ill scrap the shell. That leaves me with the 1 67 I have not touched (repair wise) and the first sign of issues it will go by by. Itll take me from 4 cars to 1 and an empty garage

There's a yellow OEM harptop for sale. Get it, then you already have a GPW hardtop....for your new project.....S2k track car. I'll be over with the jacks and jackstands, tools so we can get to work. LOL.
