Another one returning to the list and while exceptional examples of the 1984 to 1986 Ford Mustang SVO exceed our $23,000 cap, low-mileage, well-sorted No 2-conditon cars can be found well within our criteria. Preservation seems to be key in that the quality examples have seen a steady climb in value while even decent No 3-condition cases have decreased.

It’s from Detroit’s pre-emissions heyday, which means cruising along with a 360-hp 430 cubic-inch V8 in a 225-inch living room. Paint, brightwork, and leather all gorgeous. It’s two tons of red and it’s here on Craigslist for an attractive $19,400.
