Well Im new here. I love,yes LOVE old Mustangs

I have always wanted a 67 or 68 fastback model. Yes Steve McQueen didn't help this any

LOL At any rate, I have seen them from $3000 for a wreck needing full restoration to $30,000 for a minty one. My question is this. How much can I get a decent daily driver for? If I get a 6 cylinder can I drop a V-8 in there later? Im not very concerned about "original" factory specs. Such as putting a V8 in a car that was a 6 from the factory and stuff like that. Any help would be great. Nice boards here by the way

If you want a V-8, get one to begin with so you start with a V-8 suspension, steering, trans, rear axle, and wheels. For a really good coupe or sports roof, 302, 4-speed or automatic with AC, ps, disk brakes etc, I would expect $8000-10,000. That's not a show car or a 428 CJ or or anything special or rare. Just a really good driver without matching #'s.

Note: check carefully for rust (existing or repaired), especially in the cowl and floor pans. That's a really expensive thing to fix correctly.
