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.

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.

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.
1994 Ford Mustang, Weekend Racer
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.

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.
1990 Ford Mustang, Supercharged, Full Griggs, Roll-Cage
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.
1970 Mustang Fastback
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.
2005 Mustang V6, Supercharged Race Car
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.
1969 Ford Mustang Coupe, Straight 6
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.
Unrestored, 1969 Ford 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.
1965 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.
1967 Ford Mustang Fastback
Cars and Coffee is held at Mazda's North American Operations Center every Sunday and we can't thank them enough for opening their parking lot to avid enthusiasts!
We're wrapping up our coverage of the 2011 Coronado Festival of Speed with the odds and ends from the show and the paddock. This Moto Guzzi powered trike is definitely odd.
Cars and Coffee is an automotive gathering that started here in Southern California and has fervently spread across the US to other major metropolitan city. There's good reason for that level of excitement as this is one of the most eclectic shows around.
This '70 Mustang Mach 1 looks to be very complete and is well on it's way to being a wonderfully restored driver. Seller states that the car has had several recent updates including, front suspension, radiator, front brakes, and exhaust. There is mention of body work that needs to be done as well as interior work. At 15,000 OBO, we think this is a pretty good deal for Mach 1. Find it here in Mesa, AZ.
1970 Mach 1 Mustang Driveable Project
If we were given the option to only go to one automotive event in California for the rest of our lives, it would undoubtedly be the Coronado Festival of Speed.
We've always loved purpose built classic Mustangs, whether they were coupes or fastbacks. The '69 Mustang is probably the most attractive year for the Mustang coupe and this one is a great base for your road race or autocross dreams. Tubbed with a tubular frame and integrated rollcage, this project could go any way the next builder wants. It's hard to find a rust free body at this price, let alone one with such extensive chassis modifications. Find it here in Pleasan Hill, CA for $2,200.

The 2003 Cobra is a legendary performance machine that makes massive horse power with minimal modification. It's that reason that finding a stock example has become so difficult. Here's a stock, low-mileage, 10th anniversary car that is reasonably priced at $19,500. Find it here in Corpus Christi, TX.
2003 Ford Cobra 10th anniversary edition
SVO Mustangs are really special cars that seem to be on the cusp of becoming serious collectors. With only 21k miles, this extremely low-mileage example would be worth holding onto. Find it here, priced at a reasonable $9,900 in Temecula, CA.
