1979 Mustang COBRA Turbo four. How Much?

i can get a 79 turbo four cobra from a guy close by, it has a kawasaki turbo with 11 lbs of boost but he said it needs to be cleaned out (motor). he told me to make an offer but i have no idea how much its worth. i dont think he know much about it he said it was a 5 door and he has a  load ofcars that were his dads and i think he wants to get red of them.

the back window is out and im sure it has other problems

what should i offer him?

The 79 carb turbo cars had a Garrett/AiResearch turbo on them stock.

If the back window is out and has been out...the car is probaby . 

Pics would help gauge worth...probably no more than a couple hundred dollars though...

:grinno:

yeah, get some pics if you can, although with the back window knocked out, it probably has less floor than the flintstone mobile...
