FS: 2000 Ford Lightning, 35K miles, fully built 700+ RWHP street truck!!
Well, been thinking hard about making some BIG changes in life and to do so, CASH is king and usually needed to make those moves.
I AM NOT desperate to sell this truck, so I want that out there right off of the bat.
If it doesn't sell, I will just keep it with ABSOLUTELY NO problem doing so, and if need be find another way to move/change/rearrange what I need to.....
there is always more than one way to get things done.
No lowballers, negative comments, etc please.
Please, if you feel the need to bash or "question" anything please feel free to PM or email me as to not clutter up the FOR SALE ad. Thanks in advance.
**NEW CASH PRICE as of 2/24/08:
Huge price drop, will not go any lower, so please don't ask!!
$21,800 as it sits
$23,800 with Centerlines/Wet Okoles
(see section below mod list)
I will consider trades, but trade value is still @ $25K give or take.....
Prefer something that will be easier to sell.
Still mainly looking at:
C6
TBSS
SRT-8
CTS-V
05 Stang
Pro Street or Pro Touring Muscle car, aka 60's Mustang. Chevelle, Nova, Camaro....etc
Alot of money....maybe, but you could never reproduce this truck for even double the asking price.
Finally, DETAILS:
2000 Ford Lightning
Black/Gray
35,000 miles
Location: Southern NJ 08091
Email: [email protected]
Fully built, front to back. Dead on reliable....
Legitimate 9 second truck.
Best run of 9.74 at 138mph
(This was done with a 100 shot of nitrous, kit has since been pulled off and sold. Was going to spin the 2.3 more or go with a bigger blower to hit mid 9's again this spring)
Truck has run best of 10.5's on just blower, would run a 10.2 to 10.3 I believe with same driver from nitrous run (Evan Smith of MM&FF's only pass was the 9.74 run versus owners low 10 second runs using exact same setup)
Want a 9 second truck??
Up the boost, upgrade blower, or add a cheap 100 shot and there you are.......
Dyno:
650rwhp on pump
680rwhp on race gas
780rwhp on race gas with 100 wet shot (again, gone)
