03/04 are sc

[HMUSN]

I would not buy that. Not a chance.

[wraitherx]

i would get it checked out thoroughly by a mechanic. Get a leak down and compression test done. The oil pressure drop could be a bad sensor and the oil pressure guages in our cars are just dummy guages anyway. If he has an aftermarket guage then I wouldnt get it. Also, if he's got breathers on the valve covers take them off or see if you see any smoke coming out of it. If not then see if you can re-attach the PCV system and take it for a ride and see if any oil drips out of the intake or if the PCV's blow off when you get on it. I have heard of people trying to mask engine problems with breathers on the valve covers.

you will have to get alot of parts off of the termi in order to make it work.

[HRV6STANG]

you know what parts??or would it be better to buy a procharger??

[wraitherx]

completely up to you but get the car first and see what you have to work with.

[02GT89]

it drops oil pressure??? WALK AWAY NOW!!!!! just simply WALK AWAY! I am a dealer and I would not touch that with a 100 foot pole, that car is about to have some serious major issues he is driving it on dropped oil pressure and that motor is FUCKED! PLEASE for the sake of MM don't buy that car! pick another one who cares if it's modded!

If it's a bad lifter - your looking inwards of $1,000 to fix it

that car has serious issues and is not something you want o deal with unless you have a plan for
ALOT OF CUSSING
A SHITTY MOTOR
A ABUSED CAR

I would offer him $3,000 because by the time that damn thing is running right again you will have 6k in it

POINT: TO many red flags, To many potential problems, Asking to much , He knows something he is not telling you!

[wraitherx]

just get it checked out by a mechanic. If the person selling it does not agree to get it checked out then walk away. As I have stated, the problem could just be a bad sensor and our oil pressure guages are not 100% accurate as most people just call them dummy guages. Any car that you purchase, private seller, always make sure to have it throroughly checked out by a good mechanic.

[wraitherx]

i will agree with the roof and the dent

[02GT89]

well yes, maybe I just got a little irrational there my bad I just tend to avoid anything that has redflags on them, but do as wraitherx suggested! and make sure you locate your own guy to check the vehicle out otherwise he will just have a buddy thats a mechanic call you and lie ! personal experience on dealing with stuff like this, that's why i don't mess with it any more

[HRV6STANG]

Okay I should be able to have my shop teacker come with me.I think he has like 20+ years exp. So to get it straight check the sensor and the gauge and other things that you are supposed to have done with it okay guys I think I will check it out saturday.I will search around and see what I would have to do about an S/C if I get the car

[02GT89]

GoodLuck man!
