Default 5.0 gt.. good for second car?

how much are the early 90's 5.0 gt's going for now? i'm thinking about leaving my car as is.. cause it's my d/d and i dont want it to blow up, and getting an early 90's gt to suit my need for speed.
are they easy to work on, take well to mods, etc? i wont be paying any mechanics to work on it, so basically: is it a good backyard go fast kinda car? or maybe i should look at an older generation?

thanks for your input in advance.

You might consider getting an older 5.0 w/ carberator, might be even easier than fuel injected. Just a thought.

the 5.0 are solid engines, will last a long time, and are very receptive to mods
