I go from West Virginia  to Ohio about twice a month about 500 mi round trip. So I decided why not try out a V-6? The cars around here are rusted pretty bad so  I found this car in Craigslist in Florida. Two owners both women, 67,000 mi V-6 Auto with air and lots of options super clean-NO RUST- For $1,100  I flew down and drove it back, Ran great about 28 MPG. Is 28 MPG about right for a V-6? (ran about 70-75 MPH) the interior is black and really nice almost like new. -- needed a vent center of dash you can see it's broke in the picture.--I plan on this being a fun project car. I'm going to keep the engine and drive line stock. I just would like it to look a little bit better on the outside. I think I'll go with the look of a Cobra but not run any badges. So far i have found some good deals on some stuff already. I picked up a set of Cobra wheels and a duel stainless steel exhaust system kit.  I had a 94 cobra and really liked the look of the car. But after breaking my left knee the 5 speed didn'twork out very well. This is how the car looked when I picked it up. I lucked out this had the rear window defrost it's nice to have that here but hard to find a car in Florida with that option. -- this is the 3rd mustang I have bought in Florida. <a href="http://s1071.photobucket.com/user/leehamrick/media/00l0l_dnwnfaOMclN_600x450_zpscma9rhvy.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1071.photobucket.com/albums/u503/leehamrick/00l0l_dnwnfaOMclN_600x450_zpscma9rhvy.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a><a href="http://s1071.photobucket.com/user/leehamrick/media/00p0p_6oyKy4GhSJT_1200x900_zpsrm2ikke2.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1071.photobucket.com/albums/u503/leehamrick/00p0p_6oyKy4GhSJT_1200x900_zpsrm2ikke2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></blockquote>
