I just really need to know an average price and that would help a lot, thanks.How much can i buy a 1978 Ford Mustang or any muscle cars in working but a beat up condition?1978 Mustang was hardly a muscle car. Rebadged, reshaped pintos. They did have an anemic 305 option, but it was so choked down by smog equipment that it barely got out of its own wayHow much can i buy a 1978 Ford Mustang or any muscle cars in working but a beat up condition?Why '78? They looked the same through the mid-80's. You will have a real hard time finding one of these cars that is not rusty or falling apart, they are over 30 years old now. These cars were not rockets, in fact they were slow as dirt compared to any modern car.
