Thanks guys. I know when I was younger my dad used to buy wrecked fox body mustangs, rebuild, and resell. Things have changed. The newer ones are more expensive to repair. There's not as big of a following for the newer mustangs that are currently coming up at the insurance salvage sales, so you may have to sit on them longer once repaired. The price of salvage is sky high now because theres more profit in selling parts than there is rebuilding the car. The last one we rebuilt was a 2003 Mach 1 and we thought we'd never sell it. Nobody could get financing on a rebuilt car. The repair was nice and all cutting was done in factory seams. You really had to know what you were looking for to tell what had been done. So, that market is not good for us any more. I know a guy that rebuilds late model vehicles and has a very profitable business. The problem is it's a hack shop and they make money by cutting corners, which I'm not into. I've seen them do things like cut a cavalier hit in the front and a sunbird hit in the rear in half and weld them back together. It's essentially the same car and everything fit perfectly together but it said chevrolet on the rear bumper and pontiac on the front. I'm just no into that.

I bought a 1990 Ford Ranger for $600 that needed an engine. I carefully sought after used parts and junkyarded together a EFI 5.0 5 speed setup for it, put a dry nitrous kit on it, lowered it and put on a set of 97 cobra wheels. It made 337hp to the wheels and had cold a/c. I drove it for maybe 4 years and sold it for $5500. I probably doubled my investment on it. But how many times can you do that with a Ford Ranger? How many people out there even want a vehicle like that? If I did another I'd probably be stuck with it forever. Besides that, I have no desire to fool with stuff like that any more.
