Sooo,.. i might get a sport,.....car is gone,....

I,ve been eyeballing this sport for a while,... its light blue metallic paint,..some pretty cool rims,...tinted windows,.. and a spoiler.... oh and some side skirts from a factory gfx kit,..
The  downside..
its got no front clip,... well hood and header panel, or bumper cover,..
Sooo,. anyway,. iwas getting gas today and this guy was filling up a saturn,.. i noticed as he was pulling away that his fuel door was open and the cap was on the trunk,.... so i hollered him down and he stopped and thanked me,.. the he goes "hey you need some parts for your cougar?"  i said "hell yeah" and he goes i live up the street and i have a blue thunderbird that i want to get rid of,.. And i told him how ive been eyeballing it for a while and was going to stop over and offer him something ,... then he goes $200 takes it away, 5.0 runs and drives,.....plus i guess he has some extra stuff in his garage that will go with the car,.... So yeah im goning to snap some pics tomarrow hopefully and get a closer look at this thing,...  i havent been this excited for a while!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(but the girlfriend wants to sell her cat next spring, for a jeep:flame:, so i gotta figure somethin out,... I think itd be cool to have two 5.0l street foxes,and turn the girls LS into my weekend drag car,..(460 obviously!!))Just gotta find a plce to put these things!!!
Anyway thats my little rant of excitement for today,...

Looks like someone was trying to put a Mustang front end on it or something. Do they have the stock hood and bumper?

I think it would be un-wise. Looks like it probably not worth the time, money, trouble and heartbreak. Given your threads and what not with your current car, probably be better off focusing on that and your current situations.

That thing looks like a money pit. I would only purchase it to part it out (assuming the interior is unmolested).

Poor 4-eyes... :(
