So which would get me a better car? Buying a Fox style mustang for cheap and putting ~4-5 grand into it OR buying a mid 90s Cobra and modding it with whatever money I have left.. if there is any.. haha.

Thats what I think too. I really love the older stangs. They will be easier to work on, cheaper, and they just look better! So if I find one in good condition I'll probably go for that.
And I dont want to spend all 8 grand on the car because I have to pay for insurance and any mods that I have in mind.
I live in Saskatchewan, Canada and cars seem to be a bit more expensive here than they are in the states =/
Your roads, minus 40 degrees celsius + 25 year old fox = trouble IMHO...

If i was in your situation i would be looking for a stang in the best running condition or non running condition with a perfect body and interior if you have space at your home.

Alot of my friends have gone "cheap" to get a car they wanted. They have spent the cost of the car+ to keep it running and all have soldtheir carsbecause of the problems, just athoughts. My stang is a salvage but its fine, the previous owner fixed everything, and got it at a good price too.
