How to Sell My Mustang Online

Selling your Mustang online opens your sale to a wide range of potential customers who may not have seen your car listed otherwise. Consider the cost of shipping and placing sale listings before you decide that you're going to sell your vehicle online. Be sure that you're only using reputable shipping services that offer some type of insurance on your vehicle, in the event that it is damaged in transit. Once you've made the sale, you'll have to ship your Mustang or arrange for pickup.

Instructions

1

Find out the current value of your car by consulting the Kelley Blue Book, which is available online and at many local libraries and bookstores. Find the year of your Mustang and determine the condition to know how much it is worth. Potential customers will likely also look at the Kelley Blue Book, so set a fair price.

2

Take multiple pictures of the interior, exterior and engine of the Mustang. Photograph the vehicle identification number on the inside of the driver's-side door. Show the dashboard, seats, floorboards, trunk and any scratches or dings. It's important to be thorough when taking pictures, since prospective buyers won't be able to examine the car themselves before committing to the sale.

3

Scan any documentation you have on the car into a PDF file. Include mechanics' bills, inspections and any warranty information. You can send this via email to interested clients.

4

Create a listing on an online automobile selling site like eBay, Cars Direct or Auto Trader (see Resource section). Upload the photographs you took with the listing and explain that you can send additional documentation of repairs to interested parties.

5

Determine what methods of payment and shipping you will offer. You can accept check, credit card or even cash if the pickup is local. You don't have to agree to ship the car. You can request that only buyers willing to pick it up make a bid on your Mustang.
