Or RX-7 ;) http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/4331485558.html
He's probably asking a bit much. Local to me though. Too bad I don't really have the space/extra money for another toy.
Looks nice but im having doubts on the 92 mustang engine
Sad that it's being driven...probably for the first or maybe second even third time...in the salt. Can't save 'em all! And there's plenty out there too owned by people that think they're in the same league as a Buick GN. So that's good. Depending on condition, not *stratospheric* in price. Guarantee he'd take $2500. Already see some obvious flaws to point out, if one wanted to be a meanie lol....
...and the first thing, though making sweeping generalizations is not nice and is dangerous, is that experience warns that a cotton-headed ninny-muggins put that goofy black ubiquitous car alarm loudspeaker in there, and half-assed everything in between it and the parts of the vehicle that Ford installed.
I suppose that's ONE advantage I can't take away from new cars in the 21st century. If you try and hack up wiring...it's not just a pain in the ass for a future owner. It could very well mean catastrophic destruction for YOU, make and model dependent!
I doubt it's a HO either. It does have some wear but it's definitely not been driven in the salt much before.
As for hack wiring you should see the job on the dealer installed sunroof on my Mark VII. Scotch lock connectors and masking tape ftw!
The tires are in good shapes ....... So they should be round lol
I didn't know 5.0's used a timing BELT, and what the eff is a "thoemtat"?
The alt looks new, but the ac brackets are cougar bird. if I swapped a h.o. Motor straight out of a 92 stang, it would be mass air and at least have the h.o. plaque.
I'm calling bs on the stang motor. 95% seller isn't a car guy, or doesn't know the.difference.
seat belt clips are still standing upright,, that generally speaks to lower use.
Nice Mazda he is selling RX-7
It's the best V8 swap Mazda I've ever seen.
classic fox body alarm siren location lol
Always surprises the hell out of me when I do see this!!
Do I have the only Fox with those things intact? Every other one I see has these parts cracked to hell.
The ones in my 83 are in perfect shape.....
Another one worth saving...gears are turning. Oh my, and I don't even like the c-pillars of the Cat cars one bit.
Hmmmm. Not to worry, if this one comes to Laclede, Missouri, it WILL have an HO in it in by the following weekend. :)
Of course, one or two other cars will go bye bye if it comes to be. Lou, did you check it out in person? Wonder how well it runs and drives, and if it would make the trip....hmmm.
I haven't looked at it. I don't have the fundage/space for it so I haven't contacted the guy.
My tbirds are both good still with around 250k on the body.
Cougar with 190ish are garbage.
One would think that with 72k the suspension bushings and ball joints should be in really good shape on that Cougar. I would be worried about how good the tires are and how much brake pad life it had left before driving it several hundred miles.
Did you reply to the wrong thread? Just judging by the hole in the floormat id guess well over 100k. maybe 150ish.
I just got the mileage from that 87 XR7 stuck in my head. Yeah with the floor mat wear this thing has to have about 100k or so. Suspension should be ok at that mileage. The bushings might be worn but I would think they would be serviceable.
Just talked to him on the phone. I may be flying up next Monday to pick it up.
Let us know how it is. Hopefully it's in good shape.
Asking WAY too much. 98% rust free my arse. Both doors rusted out at the bottom both rear quarters have rust and there is bondo in other areas.
what was the asking price out of curiosity? You should show him my car that i picked up for 2K, with 72k miles. Almost perfect, and not a pinhole of rust, and show him what the market bears on these cars. Maybe he will drop his numbers.......
My passenger side one is good still. I have a perfect set in my stash waiting to go in.
So it's a $1000 car. Maybe.
The ones on my Thunderbird are still intact with 133K miles of use. I have no idea why but I'm not complaining.
When I got mine they were both still good. Car had about 150 k on it when I got it. Lasted a few more years....
yeah and i believe you have a tan leather front arm rest also,,
