That car was in Iowa and for sale in AutoTrader a few years ago fro $8000.  I like it, althought I'm not that keen about the wheels, but I'd take them.

well its not a 5.0. I didnt care for it too much honestly. Not trying to be mean, yeah it looks cool, and is prolly fast, but I wouldnt buy/trade for it.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Well come on.  They might have spun up a pricey paintjob, buut they still stuck  wheels and tires on it and dumped in a lump of a carbed motor.....  the execution just looks half-assed, but they're hoping the silly color-changing paint job will sell the car.  I bet the rest is pretty stock....
Just not THAT interesting IMO

it's nice but I would definatly change the rims to something else too.

They used cheap wal-mart guages for the tach and in the dash too.
