We don't normally post cars without pics, but this '82 Mustang is worth checking out. This Mach1 swap isn't just the motor and trans, but the complete interior as well. The builder spent many, many hours getting all of the interior panels and switches to not only fit, but function as if it were stock. A few videos have been posted by the seller outlining the condition of the car but you never get to see the overall condition of the vehicle. Up close, everything looks to be fantastic and well worth the asking price. Find it here, in Vail, AZ, for $13,500.

Craigslist Find: '68 Mustang Fastback
If you're looking for an investment car, chances are you're looking for something that is popular and just so happens to be affordable. This '68 Mustang Fastback should fit the bill. The paint is photo friendly and the car comes with a very desirable 302/4 speed drive line combo. The ad does elude to the motor, trans, and paint being original, but that would need to be confirmed with the seller. There is some rust, but nothing serious. These cars have always been some of the most desirable American classics on the road and we've always wanted to have one in the Carticular garage. Find it here, in Costa Mesa, CA, for $15,500. We don't think you'll find a better deal on a driving '68 Fastback.

Craigslist Find:'94 Mustang, Daily Driver Racer
This '94 Mustang looks like a great base for someone who wants to drive to work in their race car. There isn't much done to the motor, so the stock 5.0 should be running for quite awhile and the chassis has received several upgrades to include an eight point roll cage as well as after market suspension. We'd like to know what the "aftermarket suspension" includes, but either way this is a good deal at $3,500. Find it here, in Las Vegas, NV.

Craigslist Find: '65 Mustang Coupe
This Mustang looks like a great deal for someone who's just looking to have some fun in a vintage muscle car for cheap. The 4 valve 289 four speed combo is sure to put a grin on your face while cruising around town or on your favorite twisty road. The car looks straight but because of the salvage title we would inspect it very closely. We love the vintage Recaro seats and the car comes with an uninstalled four point roll bar for those of you who want to turn this into a more serious performance car. Find it here, in Sacramento, CA, for $8,500.

Craigslist Find: Viper Powered '51 Ford Woody Project
One of the easiest ways to get a lot of attention at a car show is shock value. We can't think of anything more shocking than a Ford Woody Wagon that's running a Dodge Viper power-train. Aside from having this very surprising power-plant, this car has had several nice body and suspension mods that have this car well on it's way to getting some serious hot rod cred. This build already has a pile of high dollar parts that is sure to cost more than the asking price. Find it here in Farmingdale, NY, for $12,000. This car is at a nice point in the build where the next owner can either go crazy with body and interior, or wrap it up and have this car on the road in a couple of months!

Craigslist Find: Supercharged, '90 Ford Mustang
A supercharged V8 and some serious road racing suspension, what's not to like? Well... The Fox Body Mustang may not be the best looking car (especially when the paint is in less than show room condition), but has always been a performance bargain. If you were a track rat growing up, like some of us, then you probably had a friend or two with 5.0 Mustangs that would walk all over every other car in the group, with very minimal mods. So, after many years of therapy, we can now say "the 5.0 Mustang is a good car" and not spit up blood. We think this car is a great performance bargain as it's supercharged, has Griggs full road race suspension, and roll-cage. The paint needs work and we'd would change/paint those wheels immediately. Find it here, in the Los Angeles area, for $6,000.

Craigslist Find: '70 Ford Mustang Fastback
Fastback Mustangs are some of the most sought after classic cars in the world and while the 1970 model isn't at the top of everyone's desirability chart, it's still a sexy beast. Especially when done like this one. The black on black on black scheme looks great and has a very nice "second read" effect when you notice the matte black Boss 302 vinyls. This car has the very desirable 4-speed manual trans and 302 drive-train combo as well as some other nice chassis and brake upgrades. We really like the wheels and think that this is a very nice classic muscle car look. The seller states that the paint was not done "right" by the body shop he took the car to and there is some "bubbling' in the paint. If minor corrosion and rust repair are things you can live with, then we suggest you go check this car out! Find it here, in San Antonio, TX, for $15,000.

Craigslist Find: '78 Fiesta Rally Tribute
Don't lie. You've always wanted a to storm through some mountainous dirt road in a Rally car with your copilot reading course notes from a paper that's death clinched in his hands. Well, maybe that's just us, but that's the exact image we got when saw this '78 Fiesta on Craigslist. This car looks like a metric ton of fun in a spunky little hatchback package. Everything is just right about the way this car looks and it's street/smog legal. Find all of the details here. The car is located in Sherman Oaks, CA, for $9,000. Pricing is a little steep, but we don't know where else you're going to find anything like this for less!

Craigslist Find: Stanced Crown Vic
Not much info on this one. All we know is it looks great and seller states that there was a recent tune-up, including new injectors. Crown Vics are some of the most stout cars on the road and a re a great go-to for a reliable daily driver. This car looks great as is, but we'd be tempted to paint the doors white and put some black steelies on it! Find it here, in Houston/Humble, TX, for $4,500 OBO. Hmmmmm.... what would the ideal motto and department seal be? "Hard Parking Enforcement" and a seal adorned with coil-overs and airbags?

Craigslist Find: '05 Mustang Race Car, Supercharged V6
The V6 Mustang has always had a hard time getting recognition from enthusiasts as a performance car. This '05 V6 looks to change that with the addition of a supercharger and some serious racing gear. The biggest advantage of a V6 is that it's lighter, which makes the front of the car feel more nimble. The supercharger does add some weight to the front end, but it does help close the gap in HP between the GT and the standard car. This car also benefits from a roll cage, full suspension, and what looks like a hydraulic hand brake for you drifting fans. It's also worth mentioning that despite all of the racing goodies, the car is street legal as well. Find it here, in Anaheim Hills, CA, for $10,000.

Craigslist Find: '61 Ford Ranchero Custom
Functionality and style come together in this beautiful '61 Ford Ranchero. This car/truck has been bagged and shaved into a perfect example of a late 50's to early 60's car. The three on the tree sounds like a load of fun but it looks like there is no power steering, which could end being a challenging combination. Despite the attention to detail in the body work, there are still a few small project that need to be tackled. The speedometer, gas gauge, turn signals, wipers, and heater controls are all non-op. This car is still a deal at $5,900 considering that all of the faults could be fixed in a couple of weekends. Find it here, in Fair Oaks, CA.

Craigslist Find: '68 Ford Torino Fastback, Drag Racing Art
Most cars that run a sub 10 second quarter mile time are very rarely anything that we would call beautiful, let alone a work of art. This Torino Fastback has been built with an exquisite attention to detail and looks better than just about any other Torino we've seen. This car has won multiple shows and is a serious contender in the NHRA circuit. Find it here, in Eagle, AZ, for $21,000 sans motor, trans, and racepac. The seller states that if you want the car running, they will negotiate on price.

Craigslist Find: '69 Mustang Coupe
The Coupe is the redheaded step child of the vintage mustang lineup. No where near as desirable as the Fastbacks or Convertibles. Every now and then one comes along that turns our preconceived judgments upside down. This '69 Coupe is sitting just right with the perfect size wheels and paint scheme. The seller describes the paint as "The previous owner either had the car painted by a blind man or his kid didit. Either way i wont charge extra for the bonus paint in the runs." We're sure the car isn't perfect but it does photograph well which means it will look good at distance. The seller also states that the steering box isn't the best. Even though this car is running the old straight 6 we think this a decent deal at $6,000. We'd budget to either swap the motor for a Fox Body 5.0 or a 2011+ Mustang V6 with a manual trans. Either way, you'd have a fun car that looks great. Find it here in San Rafael, CA.

Craigslist Find: Clean, Original, '69 Fastback
An original/unrestored Fastback Mustang normally go for an unbelievable premium. This car however, is an original inline 6. The car looks clean but it's not perfect. We would expect to restore some of the interior and there's probably some minor rust somewhere, but we'd only attack those issues if we were building a perfect show car. Truthfully, we'd leave it as is for a couple of years and then out the old I6 on ice and power it with the V6 out of a 2011 or newer Mustang. At $16,000, we don't think you're going to find a Fastback in this condition for less. Find it here in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Craigslist Find: '65 Mustang Fastback
We can't say why we love this car, but we have to admit that the lead in shot is selling us on it. The thought of cruising over to Neptune's Net on the PCH in a fastback, at sunset, is a dream for many people and you know this one would look great doing it. At $18,000, we know that this isn't going to be a picture perfect fastback but it's a good price for a car that looks to have been gone over recently. Find it here, in Santa Monica, CA.

Craigslist Find: '67 Mustang Fastback
Here's one of those unicorn fastback Mustangs that's affordable and in good condition. A 289 and a 3 speed manual make for a great powertrain and the factory green and black interior complete the package for a great looking vintage Mustang. The price isn't too bad either. At $20,000, this looks like a solid deal on a stock fastback Mustang. Find it here, in Hood River, OR.

Craigslist Find: '73 Pinto Racer, 2.3 Turbo Swap
Race cars don't get any cheaper than this. At $6,000 this Pinto looks to be very well sorted and is ready for just about any road race event out there. Fully SCCA compliant roll cage, fire suppression system, and a completely rebuilt 2.3 turbo out of a '86 SVO mustang are just some of the highlights from the seller. Find it here in Vacaville, CA.

Forum Find: '91 Ford Festiva 1.8 Turbo
"Why do I like this?" is the first response to the ad posted on Zilvia. We have to agree! Every shred of common sense we have is telling us to run the other way, but this is a seriously cool car. We love the look and the seller claims to get 30mpg with mixed driving which puts this car dangerously close to being practical. There is a depressing amount of rust on the rockers and the interior is gutted but the seller claims to have everything but the carpet. There are many problems and many upgrades that would need to be done for us to have any confidence in a daily driving situation but overall, this is a very cool car. Find it here in Lancaster, PA for $4,000.
