the guy probly still has it, its been up for a few days. i wouldve called but im still trying to get my car back and cant pick up any projects.
  its odd that in that condition(i mean clean looking) he would ask so little, everytime i find an 87-88 tbird of any model around here they start around that price for a beater with a blown motor:hick:

I know!! Im shocked that i found it for so cheap. I got to talk to my dad hopefully grab it. I got a t-5 i could swap in, or I have the AOD in my mark I could put in! Got all the mods i threw on the lincoln I could stick on the brid as well. Also go five lug swap. Depends. Might make the brid nice beat the lincoln to death...

Anyone notice he did a SD and not a MAF swap. That's the first time I've seen that done in a 5.0 TC swap.

Talked to my father, im calling the guy tomorrow to ask about rust, and if i get some pictures, and it all looks good I will HOPEFULLY be in the driverseat of my own bird!! Lincoln will be going bye bye, serving as a 5 lug swap, and all kinds of other goodies to it. If one of you guys gets it, so be it, but GOD I WANT IT!

How far from you is it? Its 3 hours for my dad, and I really dont want to send him to look only to find more wrong with it.(dads a ex ford mechanic, knows his shiznit) If you find out some from the guy, and are not planning to buy, let me know! Id pay for some in person intel on it if its not a long drive for you!

If someone wants it, and can buy it, go for it. I still have to convince my mother...... and my father doesnt believe me that the 5.0 will get over 20mpg highway..
I am trying though, would be nice to have a solid working car.
