Dang... Ford did it right with this new 5.0. It seems to love mods too.

Its a flashback of the old 5.0 in the fox body cars. In the late eighties to early ninetys a 5.0 Mustang and 500.00 bucks spent right and you had a 7 second contender. 7's was hauling ass back then.

No shit.

What did a mustang cost in the early 70's compared to the 20k mustangs in the early 90's?

Not sure too young to care in the 70's. 6 to 7 grand I would guess
