My addiction took off. I am actually selling one or both of my motorcycles to fund a long range rifle! What hobby did you drop to get into ELR or LR shooting?
I have a problem.

Not really, this is my hobby, along with camping and fishing.
Seems like it might be becoming yours as well.

I gave up dirt bikes for long range shooting. I had a KTM 300 it was a sweet bike, but it had to go to fund my first build. I was also always worried I would get hurt and then my lifts would go down. So dirt bikes went and building guns took over.
Man, tell me how you did it, ha ha. I sold my fishing boat for my addiction.

A K-code is useless in a convertible, too much cowl shake and chassis flex, the base 289 200hp with hydraulic cam makes a better cruiser and should save money compared to a legit K-code. Just avoid the 6, they are slow and like to explode.
The 67-68 is a bit better car with similar styling, if you start with a bigger pool to search you might find a better deal.
For something entirely different, a 2005 Mustang convertible with a 3 valve 4.6 is probably close to bottoming out on depreciation, it has a much stiffer chassis, better safety, probably cheaper to maintain and insure but still has the retro styling. Maybe that other hobby doesn't have to be so expensive?
