Here is the thing...

I was talking to my brother in La. and he said that there is a NICE 5.0 roller down the road for sale. Its been sitting there for a a few months and that nobody wants it. I told my brother to tell him I'll give him $750 for it when I get down there. 5.0's dont sell for much there bc everybody wants Chevy. Its red with black interior!!!!! So i think Im just gonna keep my car and transfer the drivetrain to the red car.

True, but my brother knows alot about cars also and took a good look at the red one I mentioned in La. He said the body is perfect. No rust, dents, and even better. NO BONDO!!! Im just buy it when I get down there and swap my motor/tranny into it and still build my wite one for an all out track car. Can you say 427 stroker with a 150 shot!!!!

look at it from a business view. your motor, if you did it,I dont know im not saying that you cant rather I just dont know if you did, probably set you back an easy 4000. the car itself is probably another 1500-2000 when it was stock, so say you have 5-6k in your car, would that stock black hatch be worth that? not around here but it may be where you live. good luck, personally I wouldnt do it. but thats jmo

Wise choice. LX cars look better anyway, plus they are lighter and black is a BIIIAAACH to keep clean. My F150 is black.

True. I bought the car like it is though. That black one is actually worth the same as mine, due to mine being a salvaged title. Here is how I am looking at it now...

Before I knew about the red gt for sale, I was definately set on trading with he guy with the black gt. Now, I have an oportunity to own two foxbodys. The red roller is only $800, and I would have to do swap my motor/tranny into it, and end up wih a NICE daily driver. Then, I can build the LX with the windsor like I wanted to in the first place. It seems like a win/win situation if you ask me...
