[QUOTE="nighthawk355x, post: 5289087, member: 42515"] I just bought it last night from south Jersey, guy wanted $900 for it and the ad was misleading...he made it out to be a parts car when in fact it ran really well! The kid said it had run consistant 14.2/14.3 in the 1/4. Just had a new clutch and aluminum flywheel put in 2000 miles before I got it. [B]I got it for $600 needing the following(may sound like a lot but I'm working at a shop so this is all minor BS)[/B] -Rear strut mount(I'm getting both mounts and new struts) -Alignment -Hood(small dent from clipping a deer) -Exhaust Flex-pipe -COMPLETE REAR INTERIOR/TRUNK LINING(kid removed it all to reduce weight) -miscelaneous odds/ends The car runs/shifts perfect and the kid said the previous owner was a Ford Tech that had it since new and babied it, the guy supposedly pulled the motor out at 100k and re-did all seals/gaskets/sensors. I'll be going through EVERYTHING again myself anyway. [B]Anyone have any tips on how to keep this thing running tip-top for a daily? Also, anyone know where I can get a standard Taurus for a parts car for a few hundred(don't care if it runs, I just need all the interior stuff and a hood)?[/B] [/QUOTE]
