Next to the Mustang II's, I think the 5.0's are the ugliest Mustangs. You could probably get a 2002 GT for around 8 grand, then you would have a modern good looking car with plenty of power with the 4.6.

You mean the foxes? I dunno, You have a point there. They are a little bland inthe styling department. Especially after the classics, but they have grown on me. My first car was an 86 2.3L LX and my fourth car was an 89 2.3L LX.

Well, I wish you the best. I'm sorry you have to do that. Try and see if you can pay someone to park it somewhere for a while while you do that.
