| First off I would like to say that I bought this car almost completely finished. I bought it with the intent to finish it. I don't have the time it takes to care for a car of this nature. The car has unbelievable power. The motor was completely rebuilt 4,000 miles ago to accomodate the supercharger. The block was bored .30 over to bring it up to 306 cu. in. The crank and the connecting rods are Scat and the pistons are made by Mahle. Wolverine Blue Racer cam (289 INT. and 299 EXH.) Edelbrock Performer Aluminum Heads. Comp Cams roller rockers. Ford Racing Performance Parts Cobra Upper and Lower Intake Manifolds. BBK 75mm throttle body. FRPP 30 lb. Fuel Injectors. High flow oil pump. Flowtech alumacoat headers. 2 1/2 in. true dual exhaust into Flowmaster series 40 mufflers. The rear end has a 3.55 gear set with an Auburn limited slip differential. B&M Pro Ripper shifter. MSD Pro Billet Distributor. MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor Wire Set. MSD Blaster TFI coil. MSD/ Vortech Ignition and timing retard control module. Summit Underdrive pulleys. Electric Fan. Edelbrock 255 lph. forced induction in-tank fuel pump. Vortech S-Trim V-1 Supercharger kit. FRPP aluminum Cobra valve covers. Alpine CD player. 4- 10in. Kicker Solo-Baric subwoofers in custom box. Kicker 750 & 500 watt amps. w/ remote equalizer. 5 in. Kicker speakers with tweeters in custom housing in the kicker panels. The car was repainted from it's stock white trim to the gorgeous red that you see now when the motor was pulled to be rebuilt. NOS dry nitrous kit which was installed in the car before the motor was rebuilt. The bottle and the lines are still there, but the rest of the kit, solenoids etc. are still in my posession but are not installed in the car. I have various parts that I purchased for the car but never installed. These include, a Vortech Blow Off Valve, an Aeromotive adjustable fuel pressure regulator, and Kenny Brown sub-frame connectors. Here's the kicker, I am pretty positive the transmission is going to need to be pulled and rebuilt. It still has the stock T-5 in it and it was only built to handle around 250 hp, which this car exceeds by a mile. I found a kit made by G-Force transmissions which will handle the power and then some while still retaining the stock case. The kit costs around $1,200, and I originally was going to ask around $12,000 for the car, but due to the transmission problems I am going to knock it down to $8,500. I felt that $3,500 should allow for the kit and labor to rebuild it. There are a few other things that I feel need to be addressed before this car is up to it's full potential. It needs to have the computer reflashed and it needs either a stronger fan or it needs some kind of a cowl hood to get the heat out. It drives great down the highway and keeps a steady low temp. but due to the fact that this model has no open grill it's hard to get air to flow through the engine compartment. I was trying to keep the car as stock looking as possible and as you can see I have achieved it very well. For a car that is as old as this one it is in pretty good shape. The only real problems cosmetically is the driver's side door handle bezel which is a 5 dollar part. and the tach is going out, but I didn't want a big bulky tach in the interior so i got a stock tach to replace it, but it hasn't been installed yet. Other than what was listed I can't think of anything else wrong with the car. If you have any questions feel free to ask away. If you have sent me emails with questions regarding the car please resubmit them, my email filed them under junk and i didn't get to most of them in time. Thanks. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
