well from selling the cobra clone(93lx) and the 91 gt. I got almost 31k for the two. But I have no credit so I got a loan for 19k and that well do it all (around 15k) and a little for detailed and a few little thing. Yea I was just really mad when I wrote this now I'm colded down and started making calling. I got the guy doing my mega squirt called and he ready for me and the shop I'm buy all of this from told me in a month I can pick up the long block with the tko-600 on it. All I got to do is put the headers and intake on it and tune it and I'll be back and up and running....

well the clone was build with around 18k in parts and stuff. and the gt was a clean pony with a 93 cobra engine with 30k on it. I think I did good on the two. And not the same person bought the two.

well im really impressed your the only person i have ever seen that actually knows how much its gonna cost you. Usually guys think they can do it all for 8 grand.

and on the other hand, you guys must have some good chit down there b/c they must have been smoking it to pay you that much money for your (2) mustangs
