I noticed the rear plate - can you tell me how your dealings were with Streetside Classics? Did you broker a deal out of state with them or local? Did they flex on their advertised price at all? Reason I ask is I've seen a few SC vehicles on their site that I was interested in, but it's hard shopping "distance", plus there's always mixed reviews online about XYZ consignment shops.This was Saturday, but I picked up a new stable mate for my 2020 GT. I got a 1965 Mustang coupe. It has a 302, T-5 and Wilwood front disc brakes. I am already getting new rims and tires for it.
You can IM me if you don't want to post publicly.
I've seen quite a few nice 66-66 coupes for sale - V8 conversions and true V8's....
Fastbacks are the sweet spot, but they're becoming almost "unobtainable" with some crazy ass asking prices anymore... I saw a T-code Fastback converted to a Shelby Tribute - damn nice and spot on replication, but an asking price of $125k.... for THAT $$$, I'd spend the $125k+ on a GENUINE 65/66 GT350.... not on a T-code conversion.
There was a white K-Code Fastback on eBay in the last 2 weeks that was a buy it now for $45k out in CA... it was a STEAL for whoever scooped it up.... because it was in driver condition and practically original, no rot at all - and it was RARE, because although not really desirable to some, it had an auto transmission. It was in dry storage for years. Put it this way, some cleanup and it would be an easy flip at $60k - totally nut & bolt resto, push that figure to $75k+....
