That sucks man, WTF happened anyways? I've always loved your car, the combination of mods and the subtle exterior made her a nice sleeper.

Yeah I agree right now I actually don't want it back. Even if she got fixed I don't think she would be 100% perfect.

Stop light was green, the guy in front of me was turning left so he had to stop before making the left turn. Obviously I stopped behind him and then the girl behind me didn't look and ran right into the back of me.

I feel your pain man, I really do. This happened to my 04 about a month ago http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/819943-least-wasnt-my-68-a.html. I didn't realize how much I liked that car until that happened. I never did post it in this forum because I just couldn't bring myself to do it. On a good note the whole deal ended up re-igniting my love affair with my 68. I've been driving the hell out of it this summer. I haven't driven it this much since it was my daily driver.

You can always buy it back and fix it, that's what I ended up doing, even though I really probably should just get another.

That just really sucks man. I'm sorry.

Hey dude, I feel your pain. If you're interested, you can have all of the old body parts coming off of my car because I'm switching to 03/04 cobra panels. I have a front bumper, rear bumper, trunk lid and spoiler, and GT hood with scoop, I even have the GT side skirts. They're even already red. I could sell them, but I'd rather see you get your baby back on the road. PM me if interested.

Unfortunately there was to much damage and insurance is totaling the car. I asked how much to buy back the car and they said 2-3k. I said no thanks. I faxed all the receipts I had from my mods and I'm waiting to here back. As of right now they are giving me over 9k for the car. If they account for the mods I hope they will give me over 10k. I found a used 1997 Cobra for $9,000 very clean with only 43k on it. I might look into that and see If they would take $7,500 then use maybe 2k for mods. My girlfriend keeps pushing me to get a 2011 and use the 10k as a down payment.

At least drive a 2011 if you can live with the payment and insurance.

I drove a 2010 GT last year and loved everything about the car. The thing is I can't get a GT to much money. I could go with a v6 and performance package. I have seen some test that the new v6s are gaining 25-27rwhp and 20rwtq with a 93 OCT tune. Not bad for a v6 that would put them around 285rwhp with just a tune. That would be only 8rwhp off my old GT. Granted the tq would not be the same.

2-3k to buy it back? no way man you should get it back for around 1500 at the most. but the new 2011 v-6s pack around 305hp from what ive heard. but i would buy it back and find another new edge for a few thousand bucks swap all your good stuff over and and and oh s/c the hell out of it. you find 99-02GTs from 3-5k bucks. but thats just me tho

I say buy it back. You could have ~$8k to play with. I'd find a nice foxbody and swap in your drivetrain, interior and whatever else you can swap over. There is a local Mustang shop/club here in Tulsa that specializes in modular swapped coupes. They have put out some pretty clean cars!
The soul of your GT would live on, lol!

There are plenty of good deals on 2010 GT's, brand new premium will be 26-33,000 (33 being a convertible).
As your into your mods maybe a 2010 is a good move?
At $26,000 with 10 k down, you'll be paying about $290 a month over 72 months.
This is a great REAL world calculator if it helps.

I would get the cobra rather then the V6. No real reason other then personal preference. Sorry about the car.
