Okily, don't laugh at me guys... I have never owned, driven or fixed a car... But, cuz I'm 15... I'm looking for a car for when I get a liscence... I have been looking at used cars... 'beaters' as the term may put it as without much success... Then I go over to the bailiff's lot where they sell reposessed cars... And across the lot sits a '66-'68 stang... aahh, I said as I watch in awwe, Now... I WANT THAT CAR. Who knows if it works, but I plan to buy it. The lot was closed so I didn't get to see much of it, but from what I saw, wheels and exterior just need some touching up. BUT of course, does it work? Engine. I'm preparing for the fact that it doesn't. Now, is it worth replacing the engine... What sort of price am I looking for so I can set a buget, and finally What engine? if I do replace it. I REALLY want this car, but if it's just not worth it, I'm afraid I'll ditch it and look for my honda del sol But, I REALLY WANT the car... So, yes, ANY information, links, anything you can give would be GREATLY appreciated, like mechanical stuff etc. THANK YOU, and with your help, the car might be mine!
