Anyone Else Buy Stuff You Don't Need?

[MustangIIMatt]

What do you think the costs will be to reshape that thing (assuming there's no holes in the weld which looks sketchy as eff)?

 

[Ryuk]

Out of curiosity, why would someone pay a machine shop to weld up a head like that and not finish the job by machining it?

Looks more like an amateur did the welding and the machine shop said nah

 

[Mustang5L5]

I agree. That's a home weld job.

I'd scrap that head. As for the other, A bare TFS casting is $500-600 depending on vendor. I'd just rather spend the $$$ and get one new vs take a chance on that head given the obvious evidence something went boom

Hey, I don't really need it, so if I win, great. If a bid war breaks out and @RaggedGT makes out like a bandit, also great. I win either way.

I’ll have it headed to Texas very soon- hopefully you will post up some pics of it installed in the II.

I’m glad you are happy with it .
So... did ya add it to your parts stash-or is an install planned soon?

 

[Mustang5L5]

I don't even own these years, but figured it was a good resource to have.

Been snagging the ones I see ~$20 lately. Got a 1990 EVTM also on the way

It's in the parts stash for now.

I often forget that I own a 1989 Shop Manual. I got it from a long-time member here that liquidated a bunch of old stuff a few years ago.

When the zombies come, it's one of the things I'm taking with me.

I've got a crapload of extra service manuals for the 1983 models if anyone feels like they "NEED" to add to their collections. Lol.

I have a missile alert system for sale...CHEAP. Comes with a half awake employee who sometimes pushes the wrong button.

I'll take it. The half awake employee can get me H.O.V. lane access and the alert system will scare everyone outta my way. No MoPac ExpressLane charges for me, SUCKAS!
