bmxmon & goodyear1984,
Thanks for the advice. I recently sent for and received the Marti report for my car. Turns out it's not the original color or interior. When I bought this car, it was obvious it had been wrecked, from a small amount of frame repair up on the left front. I went ahead and purchased the stroker and C6. It was tricked out with pretty much everything I wanted. As you said bmxmon, I bought this car to enjoy, and so I might as well get it the way I want it, and not worry about resale. They aren't making these cars anymore, so they really can't depreciate, even in a weak economy. My ride when I was 16 was a brand new 1968 GTX, 440 mag. Back in the day, we didn't want our cars to look stock. That's my feeling still. I want this 'stang to rip up the road, and look really cool doing it. Now all I have to do is find honest people to do the work I can't (which is most of it). I believe they will be provided.

Have a very Blessed Christmas!
in HIS grip,
Dan
