Need Some Help Deciding on a 69 Mustang

[JoeT]

I've been looking for a 69-70 Stang for some time. Im currently looking at a 69 Mustang Grande. I had one of these back in the old days

Anyway, obviously I don't want to get stuck with a car that I someday cant get rid of if needed be. I've read a few of my Mustang books and very little is mentioned about the Grande, although it is the first year for this production. It was considered the Luxury version and came with a 302 2v.

Am I totally wasting my money on something like this? I mean, I dont plan on keeping it in the state that its in, and some money will be dumped into it.

Why is this car seem to get zero respect when they only made a little over 22k of these in 69?

Come on guys need your advise here, I'm dieing to pick up a 69-70 that doesn't break the bank, this is a good priced one.
