Hey guys, I bought a MINT ford explorer from my cousins...I paid 500 for it. It was such a great deal i had to buy it. Well its a 99 and they're worth around 3-3500. SO, I currently have a 86 notch thats got 30k on it and im swapping it to a v8 now. So as we all know its cheaper to buy one than build one im looking to pick up another stang. I listed it on craigslist for trade towards a 5.0. I've been getting alot of offers. But what do i want? Seeing as i have 86 notch already i dont need another one.

Do i get a 1985-1986 GT Hard top or Convert?
Or a 1987-1993 GT or LX? Hard top or convert?

If you're planning on keeping the current 4 banger 86 notch I would be looking for an 87-93 hatch in gt or lx.

If you feel as if you can get $3000 to $3500 then just sell it and put the money toward your current car. Is your current car not worthy of being a daily driver? I understand if you wouldnt want to drive it everywhere you go also. I havent daily drove a mustang since the late 90s.
