I was going to order a brand new car. Had my heart set on it. Vintage would have been my choice of dealer. I was lucky enough to have found a 4 year old car that only had 1500 miles on it. The car had a lot of things I wanted but weren't going to get because they would have driven the price up into the cost prohibited range. Roush 427r, TKO 600,
oil cooler, ceramic coated headers, Wilwood power braking, glove compartment and heater. Saved myself about 30k and didn't have to wait. Power steering seems to be the hot ticket although the purists frown on it. Shop a little. There are some very nice low mileage cars out there. Also, research if there might be potential registration problems bringing a used Backdraft into your state. I live in NJ and the car I found was also here. Car is titled now as 65 replica which means it follows 1965 guideline. Good luck.
