Do you find yourself wishing you would never have to get out of it? Lying in bed wishing the sun would never have set so you could just stay in it? What the sound of a Power adder would be like on your own car when you mash the gas? Wishing money grew on trees so the modding could commence?

If not, SELL IT! You ain't normal.

She's a beaut!!!!!

The previous owner added a K&N cold air setup and a Pypes stainless motor back performance ehaust that has a great sound. It's a five speed, with black/saddle interior. I paid it in full and pick it up tomorrow at noon. Road trip immediately after! Out with the Chevy, in with the Ford. Pictures will be added as soon as I get the car.
Not to sound like a buzz-kill, but you traded a '70 Nova SS396(the final year of the big block in the Nova) for a Mustang GT? Wow! I would have traded you my $14,000-$16,000 '06 GT for a rare muscle car like that SS396...........

The Mustang will stay in the garage during the winters. It's strictly a toy. I have a 2008 Nissan XTerra as the every day driver.

I loved the Nova, but it just wasn't very driveable. Handling sucked, brakes fair, and in warm weather w/no A/C, forget it. I didn't want to alter the car as it had 54,000 original miles and was almost stock. So my alternative was sell it. I can't have two muscle cars....the wife vetoed that.

Understood, sorry to have implied that you made a dumb decision(guess I should never assume-lol). I hope you got some decent coin for that low mileage SS396, those are way cool cars. Yes, older muscle cars are a hand-full & are a nightmare to drive daily or semi daily. Any pics of the SS396 for these curious eyes?????
