Im stuck between buying these 3 cars. What would you go for and what would be the better investment in the long run!
-1972 Mustang Grande - Recond engine, new carb etc 351 clevo. WOF/Reg -1975 Mustang Ghia - 302, new radiator, carb, muffler etc. WOF/Reg -1978 Chevy Camaro - 427 big block, needs vinning and new windscreen, runs and is mechanically fine.
Cheers :)

I am a Ford man, but I would take the Camaro. Those 70's Mustangs are horrible

Personally - 1st or 3rd.

My pick would be the Camaro. Neither of the two Mustangs are what you would cal "super collectible" and even the Chev has limited appeal. Are you stuck on these or can you stretch to a more desirable model!

mm yeah I like the camaro too! Yeah, I would prefer an eight cylinder, and preferably a 2 door coupe! I like the muscular stance of the camaro, and the engines quite strong. However in my price range, there are only more uglier mustangs and HQ's (not a bad thing in my eyes but too big body wise).

I think they were working on proving the masturbation/blindness theory. I'd go for the Chev. (Seems a bit pricey based on your limited description!)

1. Bit of a wannabe MKI but not too shabby. Wouldn't throw one away. 2. I think I just threw up a little in my mouth 3. Like a bad cliché borked a 70's sit-com and bred

the 72 mustang grande, it's the closest to a real musclecar & is not laboured down with a ton of safety crap & a smog motor.

go the 75. ugly as it may be. But since no one wants them they will soon become very rare indeed.When was the last time anyone seen a tidy example. Or you could be part of the crowd and blend in withthe others. Todays ugly is tomorrows money in the bank. Happens all the time throughout the years. Just my thought.

Name something considered ugly at the time that is now considered a classic! (other than John Wayne)

Yep agree, close with the camaro though, only because it has a big block, but all mid - late 70's yanks are pretty horrible. Legislated until they are heavy, slow and none too pretty.

Hate to say it but both of those for Fords are butt ugly, but in all honesty I just couldn't recomend getting a chev either.

I'd go for the 1972 mustang, it doesn't look that bad in the pics.

1972 Mustang Grande. Definitely one of the best looking out of all tough-guy V8s.
