Guys,
About 6 onths ago I agreed to sell off a toy or two. My wife and I found out that we were expecting our first child and at the time I had a blown LX, my Lightning, and 2 new bikes. I reluctantly agreed to sell my LX. The same week I was offered a new job that paid 25% more and got a huge signing bonus on top of that. In that same time I took a deposit on the car....the guy never came to see it, he just paypal'd me a deposit....it was really nice car. Anyway, I offered him $500 bucks (plus his deposit) to walk away from the deal but he really wanted the car and said no. I was crushed. I'm a man of my word so I sold it....what a mistake.
To fill the void I bought a really nice 96 Cobra. It's a great car but nothing like my old 89 LX. Do you guys think that I should should ditch it and get another 5.0 or do you think that I should try to spend a little money on the Cobra and see what happens? I'll tell you, I'm finding that most of the mod motor guys don't know $h!t. Those guys are all about having somebody else make their cars go fast. Also, everything is a big deal on a mod motored car....it's like a little 100 shot of nitrous is a big deal. Anyway, I miss the 5.0 forums. I've been concentrating on my Lightning for a while but I pretty much finished that project and I'm back on the Mustangs again. Any opinions?
