New paint? Doesn't run? Why would you paint a vehicle that doesn't run unless you're hiding a poo poo-ton of bondo? Bring a magnet, check the frame rails/usual rust places.

Those floor pans are very typical for an early Mustang. Mine looked the same way when I started. You're going to be hard pressed to find an unrestored early Mustang with solid floor pans for under $10k, and it won't be easy for under $20k.

I don't know... given the number of sub-$1500 cars that show up on CL and places like that that are either rusted hulks in someone's back yard, "runs fine but has a blown head gasket/threw a rod/etc", or "ran great when parked, in 1995", saying that it currently runs fine is a selling point.

Now if only I had 650 and the time to drive to Norfolk... I always liked the old 280Zs... but my wife would make me life in it if I brought yet another vehicle home.

I think in craigslist terms, does not leak, means does not leak if it is not raining, and still runs, means still runs even after I drove it home with no oil or coolant in the engine.

Seem like it is probably a joke, right? JDM, needs glass, etc. No explanation of the setup tons of keyword stuffing.
The pics were all pulled from an autoblog post as well. They claim it cost $17k to build and the car is from S. Carolina.
