When my daddy told me that I could have any car that I wanted for my 16th birthday, I thought he was out of his mind. I thought he would have anticipated my wants better than that. After all, he had known that I'd been looking at Mustangs for sale for a long time and not beaten down, rustbucket Mustangs either. I wanted nothing less than the Shelby Mustang, and if he was willing to get it for me, I was going to ask for it.
What I didn't realize is how much went into looking for use Mustangs for sale. I knew that not every used car is the same that much is obvious to everyone but I did not know quite how deeply you had to look. You see, there are few old Mustangs with their original parts, and those that have them have to be checked out carefully. You can not always just go to a normal car technician you there. You need to go to someone who specializes in vintage Mustangs and classic cars. The first Mustang for sale I looked at, for example, looked to be just what I was craving. It was a vintage 1969 Mustang Mach 1 that looked to be in great shape. Not everything was original, but most of it was and mint too.
When the mechanic got under the hood, however, it was a different story. A lot of the work was homemade, and not very professionally done. Apparently, this particular car had been in a pretty serious accident at some point. Although a lot of the gear looked good, the structure was still compromised. The frame was not in very good shape, the engine work with shoddy in short, it was a lemon.
I actually ended up looking at literally dozens of Mustangs for sale before I picked out just the right one. It was hard waiting I really wanted to be driving right then and there but it was worth it once I found my perfect Shelby Mustang. I could tell from the first time I heard that engine rev up that it was just what I wanted to be driving. Nonetheless, I had it thoroughly checked out just to be certain. I wanted to make sure that it was absolutely the best buy there was. I wasn't disappointed. It was a beautiful car. I've had more fun than that Mustang than I can talk about, and it still runs like a dream.
