    05 Roush

    it does look like a mustang II, i have always thought that. i'm glad to hear some else say it. not complaining. The bumper sticks out too far. what's up with the wing in the back? looks like the tail is at some crazy angle. i don't like that. the fastback window vents are cool...

    I am trying to see the value here.........

    if i were a multi-millionaire, i would buy it and fix it. (btw-this is why i'm not a millionaire!) seriously though, it's ford/mustang/shelby history. and rare.

    Hey check my Stang 66

    yes, the number is on that plate, assuming that is the original plate. it may be called the 'vehicle warrant number on that plate. that number (also called the VIN) should also be stamped on the 'top upper flange of of the left front fender apron' (mustang recognition guide) headers are...

    eBay '69 I'm bidding on

    from the pictures, i don't see any reason why it's not worth what the bid is now (@9600). of course someone would be insane to plop down any non-refundable deposit without actually seeing and running the car first. i wish i had it.

    Hey check my Stang 66

    if your stang came originally equipped with the challenger v-8, it had an 8" rear (from the factory). What's your VIN? are your rear gears stock? still have the 2 bbl carb and stock intake? stock exhaust?

    Adding more HP?

    well, if he were just running at the strip, he could probably keep it straight enough while shifting. i wouldn't want to try it, but theoretically, it is possible. i say go for it. give up the hand.

    Value question

    it's hard to say by your description how cancerous the rust is. but it would have to be pretty bad to make a running gt less worth less than $3200. you did say it was a gt, right? i would think you could buy it and immediately resell it for at least $1000 profit. depending on the actual...

    kid in need of advice

    here's my .02 most immediate bang for the buck on a basically stock set up...new fin or wing :rlaugh: seriously, put em in, and you notice a nice difference the second you start it back up: rear gears. nothing an old car likes better than to get up into the rpm's a little. throw in a...

    70 Mustang,351c,auto,header question

    the last set of headers i put in a '72 w/ a/c and p/s. i think it took about 45 minutes or so, and i am nothing more than a weekend warrior. i remember thinking that it was way easier than i expected. on the other hand, i have had a bad time of it on a '69 w/ a windsor and p/s. if...

    BOSS 302 VIN ?

    the first five digits of the vin will always be 9F02G for the '69 and 0F02G for '70 from dearborn, and 0T02G for a '70 from metuchen (thats why boss 302's are sometimes referred to as 'g' codes). the rest of the numbers are the serial number, which you should find in part on the fender apron...

    Considering purchase - advice needed

    i really learned this from buying houses, but it applies here. if i were about to drop 10 grand on an older mustang, you can bet it would have black interior, if that's what i wanted. strictly based on the high price, and the fact that you want black interior, i would say this is not the...
