Interested in your feedback....I am looking for a nice driver for under $20k and am looking at two GT/CS cars. Even though I want to drive them still would like something that will preserve its value. I have to check out the facts if I decide to go further on either one but here is what I have.....
#1 On eBay now. Rust free solid body. Everything original except (1) color: originally a Candyapple red; new color Poppy Red. (2) Eleanor Wheels added. The engine is an original J Code 302. Engine rebuilt 30,000 miles ago so I am guessing I will spend a bit of money making sure it is mechanically sound.

#2 On eBay a few weeks ago did not meet reserve. This one has again has a Rust free solid body but the good news/bad news is the original engine was trashed and he put a late model 302 in it that was totally rebuilt by Dallas Mustangs plus did everything else mechanical you could think of with the front end, back end, etc.

Punch line if I can get each for about $17 to $18k am I better with a more original car where I have to put $3k in mechanicals or go with the rebuilt late model engine that is ready to roll.
