If this is the real deal, a lot of Shelby owners are going to be hopping mad!

I wouldn't put too much hope in a 6.2. The latest word is a 5.0 for the GT and a V-6 option of the Eco boost or the NA V.6. 5.0 between 350 and 400 HP and the Eco Boost around 300 HP. They will have to really deune the Eco boost since it reportidly makes over 360 HP in the Lincoln transversly mounted. It should make even more with a rear wheel drive configuration.

I did that!
Funny you should say that, because that's exactly what happened to me. I returned (thankfully alive) from Vietnam and went out cruising in my like-new '65 Mustang, only to find myself kicking around a local Ford dealer showroom. There sat a shiny white, new '70 Mach I, and I was hooked. Had to have it. Traded that "old" Rangoon Red ride in for the new one with the black speed stripe! Of course, I wish I had either one of them now. Oh well, hindsight is definitely 20-20. :lol:chrisW said:

Hold on there, Kincaid!
Not so fast, partner. If you want that Bullitt of yours to bring "big bucks" down the road a few years, I'd think long and hard before I monkeyed around too much with it. Just ask the guys who cut holes in the humps of their '57 Chevys to put in a 4-speed! I rest my case.BlackPony said:

I read some where, if you want a investment buy stocks. If you want to have fun buy a mustang. The Bullitt is a great car stock!StvMcQueen said:
Nothing wrong making some tasteful little mods and keeping the part to change the car back to stock, Right?

Didn't know that's what you meant. Sure, as long as your mods are reversible there's not a thing in the world wrong with them. Go for all the mods you want. As to my "investment," I am trying to have the best of both worlds: fun AND profit, if you get my drift. Harking back to the '57 Chevys, they cost a little over $2 grand nicely equipped, and are going for over $100,000 today. Oh, the ones with the "holes in the hump?" Good luck.BlackPony said:

That's just what my sister said the day she sold her '57 Bel Air convertible for $1,500 back in '68 and bought her a new VW bug. Exact same words! That said, go ahead and run the dog poop out of 'em boys! Have at it! Meanwhile, mine will continue to rest comfortably as an official "Garage Queen." (Not that I don't go out and have a blast in it every now and then).droopysbullitt said:

It will be many, many years before the Bullitts will be worth anything near purchase price, if ever. Most 57Chebys are worth more than their original price.

I'm not going to belabor the point or argue with you about it. If you think one of only 7,000 special edition automobiles sold in the U.S. won't fetch it's purchase price five years down the road (if kept pristine), you are sadly mistaken. To quote Forrest Gump: "And that's all I've got to say about that."rblack4405 said:
