I was offered a 1988 LX vert for my '82GT. I don't think I want to do it because I would be giving up a lot.
The vert is bone stock with about 100K miles and an automatic tranny. The only thing it has going for it is the pony wheels.
It's white with a black top and body is in pretty good shape.

I've been considering trading/selling it since it will never get past the new emission laws.
What should I do? Look for something else to trade it for or keep it and keep looking for someone to "sell" me an inspection sticker?
I just don't think a heavily modded stang is worth trading for a bone stock one...at least not that old a car.
