May be purchasing a 1971 302 Convertible
Previously:
1979 Cobra 4 Cyl Turbo, 1971 302 Sports Roof , 1993 LX 5.0
Hello everyone! I'm new to this forum, but not new to the corral. Fell in love with Mustangs at a young age because the guy down the street had a 71 Sportsroof. I was eventually able to buy that car when I was in high school, but it was too rusted out and too much work for me at that age. My first car was a 1979 Cobra turbo 4 cyl when I turned 16, had it for a few years until the turbo went out and I couldn't pass smog inspection (again, too young and too poor to fix it right). When I went to college I got into a 1993 5.0 LX that I drove daily through college and several years into my career. As luck would have it, I sold that car the morning my wife and I went to look at buying a new home (our dream home). The irony is that the seller hadn't advertised the two post car lift that is sitting in the garage! I've been in the house now over a year and it is time to get a new project Stang to put on that lift. I'm going to look at a 1971 Convertible 302 this afternoon and I hope things work out so I can join the 71-73 club again!
