1965 mustang fastback or 1965 roadsters

[JS Fords only]

HI guys I'm new to the forums and new to roadsters. I have never sat in one before, all I know I love speed and turns. They look sexy as hell. If I buy a fastback I'm very limited on choices being that 30k isn't going to get me a whole lot, but I love the way they look, other than that they dont turn or acceleration without lots of money but my wife loves mustangs.

Little back story on me is that I have only ever owned fords and have plenty of mustang being the newest was a 2015 mustang gt that I sold 2 years later bc everyone had the same car. I still currently own a 2002 mustang gt with full maximum motorsports suspension, also own a 95 mustang gt that I was thinking about using as a donor car. Owned the 95 since 2008.

Back to the roadster and fastback issue is that I can buy a 65 and drive it home the same day. I'm kinda worried about living in San Diego California and going thru the hole DMV process. I dont want to waist my money or time. I'm not worried about building a car, I'm a pipe fitter by trade and use my hands every day and also built my 02 gt from stock.

Can anyone from California chime in and help ease my wife and I on why we should buy a cobra over a fastback? Also if there is anyone in San Diego that can let me know if there are any cobra gatherings I can go to and and talk to someone in person? Thanks guys
