Default Thinking

I'm trying to figure out if I can get a loan for a classic stang. I thought that while I was trying to that I would look & try to figure out exactly what I wanted. Does anyone have a suggestion for a certain year that wouldn't be too hard to fix up. I want it drivable at least but not in pristine condition because I want to make some modifications to it. Like raise the seat (I'm short). Also is it possible to adjust the pedals so that they are closer? I would appreciate any suggestions.

Located one town from me, they do a lot of classic car loans at supposedly a really reasonable rate. I've never dealt with them but they have a phone number on their website.

Tell me what you think & what might be a good best offer.

You will pay a good price for verts. IMO, get a loan and a car that is in really good shape. Sounds like you will not have alot left to put into the car.

In reference to the coupe you just posted. Unless you have parts already for it then I would still suggest finding something in better condition. Unless you want to buy something that will just sit until you get paid. It is hard for me to do that to my two. Also, Ford dit a few different things to the 67 and 68 than did the other year models.
