First off I am new to this board but will most likely be around for a while.
I have owned a few 5liter Mustangs in the past and also a few vettes. I had to sell my last car (87 GT w/28,000 mile MINT) due to kids. I have been saving for a while and am now ready. I have $15,000 to spend and have it narrowed down to 2 cars, a 94 5-speed GT Convertible (borderline mint) for $7,900, and a 99 5-speed Cobra Convertible (also borderline mint) for $14,000. Both cars are 100% stock and the owners will go no lower than the prices I quoted (they both wanted more)
Heres my dilemma, which car to get?? I want to get it the 12's (high 12's will be fine). With the 94 I will have a considerabe amount left and will most likely go the way of a supercharger. With the cobra I will only have $1000 left (for now)
So my questions, in your opinon which should I get? which has greater potential? How much to get the 94 up to par with the 99 Cobra? what would it take? (no nitrous)
Any help would be gratly appreciated
Thanks
