Hello,

I'm looking at a 1965 ivy green mustang conv. Since it is a big
investment for me I'd like a get some helpful feedback. It does not
have a power top, but does have a/c & pb & ps. Is it a waste to pay a
premium for the AC feature in a convertible? Does the non powr top hurt
resale value? What about the color, I like it myself, but should I ever
wish to sell it would I be better of with a red one or is it of little
difference? I'm concerned about value, as I am streching my dollars to
purchase one & would feel easier to know my investment is a safe & wise
one:) Lastly is there a preference to years 65, 66, Etc?

Thanks in advance.

If you are overly worried about the financial aspects of the purchase
don't make it. In general cars are usually risky financial decisions
at best and even worse investments. If you like it and are going to
drive & enjoy it, its potential resale value should be of no concern
to you unless you are grossly over paying in the first place.

Dont paty to much and buy it if its what you and your family want to
have fun in and invest time in. Also be sure you have the proper money
and experience to accomplish most kinds of auto work yourself or it
could cost you.You didnt mention what you would pay for this one I
wouldnt give over 4,000$ unseen
If you get it you'll have support in this forum any way. I made my
stock 65 look the way and perform the way I wanted. But it takes money
time and experience.
