Well, if you put a bad paint job on bad paint...

it isn't going to make a Fox body lose much.
 
I have a feeling putting 24" wheels/tires ($1500 each), a custom paint job and the banging stereo in this mid-80s Buick Regal certainly didn't hurt the resale value... but it probably didn't help any. Please forgive the terrible picture, taken through the windshield of my moving car.

Meine Herrschaften, schenken Sie mir Ihre Aufmerksamkeit. Sie sehen jetzt aus in den interessantesten Auto aus die straße.

That the terrible thing they did to good car
 
In my mind, I want paint it look like this, it look simple and beautiful, beside red and black is only 2 color of all my ride. one of my friend have same red looking one like this, imma ask for the paint code, and give that to my friend that gonna paint the car. the mustang have no body damage just old paint is fade down to metal. every bumper, light, is still in good shape and original . hope I dont have put too much moneys in it, mabe 2000 is max I can spend.

I agree that it was a silly waste of money, but I don't necessarily agree that it is a good car (unless it was a GNX or T spec... which couldn't be verified as I was laughing too hard). Buddy of mine had one in high school and even though the car was only 10 years old at that time it was a complete POS.

If you want a cheap, durable red or black paint job, the '$50 Rustoleum' paint job seems to have worked well for several people.
