2nd Childhood?

Thinking of buying a '87 - '91 Mustang GT convertible just to have as a toy. My wife thinks I have lost my mind, since I have not been into cars since my '67 GTO and '70 Nova SS. I don't want to spend a lot maybe $3.5K - 5K, can I get one for this amount? This is not mid-life crisis, but probably late-life.

for that proce you actually can get a pretty decent stang. you will be looking at aroun 90k miles on it though and will prob need some work, but not much at all.

look on ebay to see what they are going for. that will give you a rough idea on what you are looking at.

My wife says that I will never have a second childhood since my first one is perpetual.
