It really depends. The resale of the Mach is probably pretty low but if you plan on keeping it and modding the hell out of it then do it. I wouldn't do it if you plan on getting something new within a few years.
I say save your money and buy a 5 spd that doesnt have a salvaged title. A Mach is something you will want to keeep for a long time and you will just feel better about your car.

Well the good part about the mach 1 is that your dad rebuilt it. If I was in that situation I wouldnt buy a salvaged title from anyone else. But since you know the work done, you can assume its probably legit. Also, even though its an automatic, cant you just buy a new tranny and have your dad swap it out?
i could always do a 5spd swap but i think id have more into the mach then i would if i built my car.
if i were to save my money and get a differnt car id get a 96-98 cobra or 03-04 cobra

I guess it all depends on what you want to do, I know that I ran a 15.4 @ 92 mph in my 96 GT hardtop 5 spd with 275's, Bassani O/R x pipe and flows... I think I can expect at least a 13.5 out of my stock Mach and I cant see why you wouldnt get that outa your dads Mach. I think it would be difficult to get that out of your sn-95 vert. with 4k. Plus the Mach imo looks better, even than a Termi. No offence mustang3GT07 lol.
