I was gonna say the same thing as 5.0 Bird.  The VIN says V6.  It's a pretty clean swap, I'd have to say.  And, most V6 Cougars/Birds in those years came without AOD trannies, and this car at least appears to have AOD judging by the gear indicator in the dash.  If all of that was traded out, too, somebody did a very thorough swap.  Makes you kinda wonder about the low mileage!!  Even the gasket-blowing pr0ne V6 usually lasts longer than 25K miles.  I'd do a Carfax check on it first.  Of course, it's so far out of my league $$-wise, it doesn't matter to me, anyway.  Good luck, somebody.
