Buying a Mexican Mustang (Capristang/Castang). Please help.

[JoseV]

Hi Everyone!

I live in Mexico City and I am about to buy a 1982 Convertible Mustang Coupe (the one with the Mustang body and the Capri front).

The car seems to be in very good shape (as per the pictures I received from the owner). Anyway I am checking it out personally tomorrow.

The only issue with this car (and the reason for it to be in such an attractive price) is that it does not have a roof.

Could you tell me if it would be very hard and/or expensive to get an original roof?? Also, do you know if the roof mechanism for this particular model was electrical or not??

Is it a good idea to buy this car?

THANK YOU in advance for your help!


P.D.- I am posting a couple of pictures for your further reference (and delight)...
