I had over $43k documented into my 93 5.0 with 72,000 km (44738 miles of u USA peeps) and that doesnt include any taxation on those items or labor. Taking into consideration the 50% loss rule right away, I still took a beating and got no where CLOSE to 50% of what I had into it. I think I was more around the 23% mark.

People might be listing there 5.0's for $20,000 but I am certain the amount of them selling for that price are far and few. Mine was pretty mint and the market dictated it wasn't worth shit.

And in Canada you can get a 302 5l long block, trans, rear end for under $2,000 EASILY. 1990 clean Miata around here is say $5,000. You are at $7,000. Then consider $11,000+ more for goodness. In the end that is a car I would pay no more than $10,000 for depending again on quality of work and mods. I am not even sure what the other 11k is going into but i could guess $3000 standalone, FM conversion and exhaust $3,000.

That leaves 5k more (spend that on the flux capacitor) and you still have a car that will get beat down in price on the you dont get what you put into it rule.

He is right. There are complete retarded listing rotted Mustangs for $13,000. The odd retard buys them if he can get financing. LOL
I would NEVER EVER buy a Mustang from a Canadian especially one that is active on forums in any way what so ever.
