Howdy, ive been a more recent generation mustang fan, but i would really like to look into like a 93 hatch or something in that line to have as a project car. If anybody could throw out some ballpark prices that would be reasonable for a stock hatch it would be much appreciated.

i have a pretty solid knowledge abuot cars and what not, but i do not have the time or money to do a full out restoration. id like something that i could drive right of the bat. and i realize that anything i find will probably have the basic intake and exhaust.

knotch's are lighter but hatches are sexier. verts are the heaviest. but hatches are still the sexiest.

Hatches have a slightly better drag coef., Coups are slightly lighter. For the most part, if youre looking on a fixer upper, it's alot easier to find quarter panels and interior stuff for a hatch.

Hatch!


I think that a notch can look sweet, but those hatches seem more popular and are easier to find parts for. It's all about which one you prefer.
