ok here it is... my mom has a 1968 mustang and im thinkin about buying it and restoring it... its in pretty good condition and only has 58,452 original miles.. paint is original and faded as you would think.. its $7500 too much for it? ill post up some pics when i get a chance im just tryin to get a feel for it

Without seeing the car, here's my opinion...

Fastback...good deal regardless of how it's optioned (could be GREAT deal depending on engine code), if in reasonable condition
Convertible...probably a good deal " "
Coupe...totally depends on how it's optioned

A little more info:

How many owners. was it always a Texas car?
V8?
body style?

Give us more info on the car...IE: tranny, engine and rear options are the most important...followed by interior, etc.

$7500 generally is a good price as long as interior is good and only the paint is 'faded'. Pics would be great to really help out.

In that case, body style (coupe, fastback, vert) makes all the difference.

Pics? Showing all visible corrosion/wear will enable us to offer a better opinion on whether the car is worth $7500. Since it's a coupe, 58K original miles is insignificant, and the only 289 available in '68 was the common two-barrel version [if I'm not mistaken], the car will have to be in relatively good condition to be worth $7500. Also, the car would have to be complete/nearly complete, with all/nearly all parts in good or restorable condition.
