Pros of a muscle car?
Hey, I'm 16 years old and I'm looking at my first car. I'm interested in getting a mustang, I'm looking at a 1969 Mustang Grande right now. But my parents dont like the idea as much as I do. They haven't said no, but they arn't saying yes.I have come up with some good reasons asto why I should get one, but I need more. I need some good reasons why I should get one. Thanks

My first car was an '85 honda accord, 4 door, peeling paint,no radio or A/C and died at every stop. When I wanted to buy a 1970 skylark, I used the excuse of crash protection....my tank would saw through most plastic on the road...it worked!</P>

Well I have about $5000, so it would be a good one, not the best but you can get a good car of that year for 5k. Im looking at a mustang grande right now, that is almost mint, but the hood needs to be replaced.</P>

Best reason it is easy to work on and you would like to learn to do your own repairs. Parts are fairly cheap. Imports parts are big $$$$ and most cars of today where not built to last like the cars of the 60s

Just be prepaired for every little thing to go wrong. It takes a lot of time just to deal with the needs of an older car. But once you have one everybody is jealous(well I don't know about a grande but it is a star). If you get a bad one though don't let it stop you from buying anotherold carin your life,because some are money pits.
