my dad wants to trade his 69 351w for $200 and my 72 302 both have been siting for a long time sense the 80s both run and don't smoke mine just had the carb rebuilt should i do it? he wants to swap engine and trans but i told him i don't think a c6 will fit a 65 mustang will it and if not what would it take to make it?
the trans will fit the 66 just fine. so he's wanting $200 and your old 302 in trade for his 69 351w? i'd probably do it if it's a good running engine.
yes he wants my 302 with c4 and rebuilt carb and $200 for his 351w with c6 yes they both run and dont smoke but have been siting a long time so they both could probably use a rebuild
$200 and an old 302 for a complete running (even if it needs a rebuild) 351w and C6 is a pretty good deal. but are you sure it's a C6? the stock trans for a 69 351w, no matter what car it originally came in, was an FMX not a C6. just want to make sure you know exactly what you're getting
its out of the blue cougar pics in my garage it should be the trans that came with the car so i guess its a fmx so im keeping my c4 but still want to trade 302 for 351w so what would be a good deal on that trade my 302 just had carb rebuilt and i think he still wants $200
then it would be an FMX, and yes it will still fit. what are you guys doing with the rest of the cougar? wanna sell any parts from it?
want to sell the hole car with the fmx and my 302 in it dont know if he would prat it out or not i will ask what did you need off it?
ok, that's cool. i guess i just ASSumed that since the motor was out of the car and you were going to swap motors with him that he was going to part the car out, my bad. if he does decide to part it though, let me know. i could use some parts for my 69 Coug project
OK i just found a 1969 LTD with a 351w 4bbl in it for $475 think i can get it for 350 to 400 so i don't have to kill the cat going to look at the car in a few days
ok they will not go down on the price so do you think a runing 4v 351w is worth $475 im going to crush the car to get like 200 back and sell any thing i can off it for some more money back if i can
there are a lot of little things on the LTD that will work on a stang. save the brakes for sure, i might buy them myself, radio, any kind of power accessory or other neat little dod dad it may have, etc. research what will work from that car on other cars and then crush it after you pull everything. if the car has cruise control i'll buy that too.
well i went down there to day and got the drive shaft off the LTD and got the engine ready to pull and then it stared snowing like crazy so i had to put the hood back on and stop working but yesterday before we stared taking it a part i took it out and had some fun smoking the tires
I started prepping to do an axle bearing on my Firebird last week, I gave up in this weather after getting started, snowed day after day here. I put the parts under the car, my drain pans are buried somewhere, screw it. I womped the hell out of the Bird to before I put her up on blocks
i got the engine and tranns out to day and it did not snow at all it just rained the hole time so i was cold and wet fun fun im going to take the engine apart tomorrow
well its been rianing seens the last post but i did go down to day and look at the block casting and it is a 69 block!
