Fun story for the day, curious to what you all think. I'm a craigslist junkie and noticed a 5.0 saleen appear for 4500 last week. I ditched work and drove to the trailerpark in a shady neighborhood to check it out. The poor car was sitting in the street bleeding out of every orifice on her. clearcoat peeling off, ductape holding the front groundeffects on. The rather large gentleman selling it had a beautiful 07 vette and two brand new motorcycles in front of his singlewide trailer. He tells me he acquired the vehicle and title. Starts up great, but leaking ton of fluid from tail shaft on tranny. drive it around the block and warm it up, runs good but definitely missing some oil pressure. Got out of it and noticed sweet white smoke blowing from driverside exhaust, lol. I do another walk around and notice two bullet holes in the door! I'm cracking up at this point laughing at the poor car. I felt bad for the car and told the guy 1500 and he finally settles on 3000. Anybody think i paid too much for a 90 with a much needed tranny/ engine rebuild/ plus some new paint? Wont hurt my feelings if i did pay too much. I hate crackheads trashing mustang history and probably would have paid 4000 just to save her.
Either way shes sitting in my garage with 3200 in parts on order. Going to try trickflows 360hp engine kit. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/tfs-k514-360350b . pulling the motor/tranny today.
