I have a 1987 Mustang GT 5.0 (white/red). I am the original owner and the car has about 100,000 miles on it all driven prior to 2001. The car has been garaged in Illinois since then but has not been driven. It is in great condition inside and out. I have since moved away (2001) and keep paying the monthly garage rental, which over the past five years has far exceeded the value of the car.
I have four other cars and have no garage space for it in Michigan where I live now. I also don't think that it will even start and have no clue what to do with it. It seems a shame to just junk it, but putting an ad in the paper didn't seem to generate any interest once people found out that the car hasn't been driven in five years. On the other hand, I don't really work on cars myself (just like driving them) and don't see paying many thousands of dollars to someone to restore it either.
Any ideas for what to do with it???

Is the car in driving condition??? Sell it.Put an ad in a different
paper, list it on the net. Seems you may be talking to the wrong
crowd cause with that few miles, it should bring royal cash.

Find out where the next car show is going to be.....most communities have car shows where all of the old car pheens hang out...enter it...take it down there with a for sale sign in the window and sit next to it....lol you'd be surprised how many people want to buy vehicles like that to fix them up...my ex bf just sold his GT...and it was old..it was once a nice car but...when he got rid of it, it was a cluncker....some guy bought it for a very generious price. He said he wanted to fix it up and it would be his luxury car....its worth a shot right...Good luck

if it were me i would sell it ,,like you said the cost may exceed the value of the car,and also if you have no where to put it,, it is going to be in your way,,it should be worth something to someone,,i think it would start,,with little effort,,so id see if i could get it to run,,this way it might bring more than you think it would,,i hope this helps.
