    If only I had the land, I'd buy 'em all!

    Dunno what happened to the T-top coupe, but it can't be any good.

    Looks like someone took out some aggression.

    This vert looks to have been a twin to mine.

    Is that an '86 or older door/mirror?

    My guess is that a tree fell on it. IDK though.

    Looks fixable from the pics.

    Little metal bumping would do it.

    PITA spot to work on though.

    I despise working on roofs. Always seems to be a major pain to get it right....

    Here is the other side of it:

    Last night I thought it had maybe been in a shipping container which tipped over or something, but looking at it now, I'll bet it was in a flood. Too much glass left for it to have been rolled, or through a hurricane or tornado. Still, that crease-style dent in the roof looks to have been carefully done by a human, seeing as how that T-top appears to be undamaged. Whatever the calamity, it sure inflicted some trauma.
    I don't think I would try to save it, and I am something of a bottom feeder when it comes to cars. If the chassis/pan and major structure are OK, then maybe if the car is a factory 5.0. But the car looks pretty rusty, as well as being sun-baked, so I'd probably use it as a donor to build another T-top coupe. Probably also some serious title headaches, with it being salvage and all.

    These have been on the market for a while. I can't remember now the name of the Mustang used parts company but they came and picked over each one taking only the good parts. These are literally the left over dregs that nobody else wanted after seeing them in person.

    I'm not trying to bash the Widow but most are really just scrap at this point.

    I bought some parts from this guy about 3 years ago. At that time there were lots of good rebuildable cars and lot of good parts left. We bought a door glass, gas tank, and some misc interior trim stuff for $75 total. To bad if it's already been picked over and nothing but junk left.

    Sadder if all the parts were picked over by a parts company. You know they're not going to be resold a "dirt cheap" prices.

    Sure, they might have been saved from the crusher and ultimately end up helping out more survivor cars that way, but it's also one more thing to drive up the prices of fixing up an old fox.....
