roush mustang value

[Chris396]

I graduated high school in '91. Back then the 5.0's and Buick turbos were the cars that every kid in school wanted. The Mustangs were used and abused hard. You don't see many good examples left like you used to. The Buicks were always collectibles so there are plenty of low mileage examples out there. Plus they are all the same color aside from the T-types.

Nice 5.0's will be bringing decent money soon. If not already. Who ever thought that late 70's Trans Am cars would bring decent money?

great fox stories! I lived thru the fox vs. Turbo Buick wars in th e80's too. It was a fun time. I would love to find a notch 5 speed fox in the aqua color. wow

I'd bet every registered person on the site lived through the late 80's early 90's. I am nostalgic for it but it wasn't that long ago.

In 1991 I was a junior in high school. There were several guys with 5.0s and two GNs. Best part is most were mom/dad's car. I was building my 65 L79 Malibu SS with my dad, and I was looking for reassurance it was going to be fast. My dad said this "Ain't no car from the 60's gonna loose to somthing from the 80's". It made me feel great. I was very happy to have the car ready for my Jr Prom and to be able to back that statement up!

Ah, the older I get...

I remember the old 5.0 vs. GN shootouts. Good times.

Well guys, I took the plunge and got an '07 shelby gt 500, 1200 miles, torch red with white stripes. I must say it runs pretty good!!

Yes, they do run pretty good. Install an after market cold air induction kit and Predator tune and it'll run even better. Couldn't believe the difference this made in mine. This simple mod gets you 30-40 extra horsepower. This is basically what they did to achieve the 40 extra horsepower in the KR.

As a former Roush owner the handling on these cars is SOOOO superior to the GT500's. I would of taken the lower production, more balanced car over a straight line shooter everyday of the week. Either way, congrats on the purchase!

Get a smaller pulley on the supercharger, bigger injectors and a dyno tune and you will put down 600 hp..

I still have my old tee shirts from e town and atco when they had their mustang vs. shootouts
