Welcome Tporter to CHR!

You have not shared your proposed budget with us but all here know how that works, i.e., it always ends up more than you think it will in terms of dollars and sweat equity. I really like to looks of the old fords and the 41 is a keeper. If your budget allows and you're up for the long haul, I'd really consider the 5.0 Coyote engine with a six-speed OD transmission. 412 horsepower and the ultimate Ford engine in terms of technology and reliability. They've been out since later 2010 (in the Mustang GTs) and should start to show up wrecking yards.

Just my 2 cents.
