I absolutely love the mustang (other than the stripe), and if it were your only car I'd call you crazy for trading it, but in your situation the trade makes complete sense. The split bumper is a good looking mule, whip her often to keep her in check.
The other consideration is that you already have a project car to complete, that I would assume will attain the same show queen status as the Mustang in terms of not wanting to drive it hard. Trade for the camaro and beat on her like the whore on the side. Throw just enough money at her to keep her wanting more, and finish your "trophy wife."

Just know that I haven't been handed anything....I've worked my ass off to get to where I am in life, actually grew up pretty poor....I can remember what it felt like to be hungry with nothing to eat (literally) when I was a kid. I guess in the long run those times made me strive harder to do better as I got older.
To be honest, the main reason I'm doing this deal is b/c it's the smarter option IMO. I love that Mustang, but this will allow me to diversify the higher investment I have in it into a less expensive muscle car and to finishing out my other resto project (as opposed to pulling more money out of the bank to finish the other one).
Of course I'm also trying to do right by a good friend too.
No explanation was necessary. It sounds like we've led pretty much a parallel life. I didn't have jack shit as a kid, it made me work for everything I have.
Are you a numbers guy? That's almost exactly what went through my head when I made my original recommendation and pretty much anything I do is numbers driven.
Somewhat....although I'm actually in Crisis Management for a living.

Isn't life rough? The decisions we have to make just to struggle through life!
I really feel sorry for your woes.................. NOT!
You need to be banned. A REAL DFWM baller would just buy the Camaro and have both!
J/K
I'm envious of both of those cars. I LOVE old muscle, whether it be Ford, GM, or Mopar.

Rreemo, I dig that Camaro, but your Mustang is one of my all time favs. I am sure this is hard for you, hell, I am having a hard time deciding and its not mine.
No offense, but I'd trade straight... Lol I'm a huge split bumper fan and 69/70 stangs are meh unless it says Boss on it...
Not real sure why this is really a hard decision unless that was ur first Stang or somethin...
Each to their own....I actually prefer 69-70 myself, more-so than 67-68 matter of fact....I know they are generally the most desireable, but to me those are the 69' Camaro of the Ford world.
