New Member, Need Suggestions

[smokediver27]

Hey Everyone,
Just registered for this board, quick info about me, I'm a 27 year old Firefighter/Paramedic from Central Florida.

At the present moment, I have about 4000 burning a whole in my Savings account with which I want to buy somewhere between a 1987 and 1993 5.0.

I was just about ready to close on a covertible a few days ago till i ran a carfax on it and found it was totalled up in Michigan.

Anyways, I need whatever suggestions anybody wants to offer as far as what to look for in a used mustang, whats a reasonable price, which model years may be better, ect. Are roll bars difficult to put in the convertibles (im paranoid)? Is it better to buy one that is close to stock??

Any help will be appreciated, and I look forward to (after I finally get my car) becoming an active member of this board.

Thanks
Jason
