Haha, sorry, I'm not used to V6 owners spending extra money when asking about mods I guess.
I understand completely!
I bought this car for $800. Excellent interior, full options package (for a V6), good ragtop, Cobra body kit, frame straight, cosmetically nice, and suspension is stout. I figure with a weekend of parts collection, a weekend of wrenching, and a $500 motor, I get a running and somewhat unique convertible New Edge Mustang for under $1500.
If I ever get bored and start messing around with the 4.2 and rear end, i might even get the V6 to beat some stock GT's off the line!
I like saving money as much as the next guy, and I like power. I guess I really like value above all, so at the $1500 price point I was able to justify this V6 instead of a 99-01 GT in similar condition for ~$6000.
I really appreciate your responses and your insight. Thanks, and I'll be sure to document the swap.
