What about this.

The car is in Canada. Not far me. Most of his stuff comes from the states.

Seems that Mustangs are hot!!!
I've known this guy for close to 20 years. He's a no BS guy. Kind of rare for an auto dealer.

yeah, especially if the target is 65-67, didn't the earliest body style have only small block.. if it's just modifying something to look like GT 500, doesn't any '67/'68 Mustang Fastback do?  ::)

You'll find them also a lot closer to Poland than from US: http://www.blocket.se/li?ca=11_s&th=1&q=mustang+fastback&cg=1020&w=3&ps=&pe=&rs=&re=&ms=&me=&gb=&fu= (http://www.blocket.se/li?ca=11_s&th=1&q=mustang+fastback&cg=1020&w=3&ps=&pe=&rs=&re=&ms=&me=&gb=&fu=)

Haven't followed the prices nor don't know the shipping costs from US but but if a car is only a ferry-trip away from your home country, lot nicer to go to check it out than relying on bunch of photos.
