Sounds pretty nice! Whats the price? And Mileage?

sisley88 · December 9th, 2010, 02:18 PM

i can get it for 6500. he says 1500 on build but not sure of the actual miles on the car.

dshaff36 · December 9th, 2010, 02:30 PM

I would try to talk him down a little bit. Theres a built 351 windsor swapped fox by me for 5000, it doesn't have as many mods but it makes me wonder about the value of the car you are looking at. But I think it could be a great purchase.

What condition are the paint and interior in?

sounds pretty cool, dont usually post here but this is interesting. got any pics?

sisley88 · December 9th, 2010, 02:49 PM

he is asking more for the car but giving me a quite a bit off. the paint is 6 months old but he put a new hood on it so that is going to need paint. interior is in pretty good shape. i dont have any pics right now but i will try and post some soon.

347 w/TF heads with a turbo all with a stock block. If it is making anywhere near 500 HP which it better be, that block is on borrowed time.

Wow, I completely overlooked the part about it being boosted! I don't know how I missed it. 6500 would probably be a fair price then.

I say go for it!

The block probably already has an issue... likely why he selling it so cheap. If the body is in good shape, thats atleast 9k worth of ride
