Hopefully that's a non-mobile link.

This was set higher and has been dropped c couple of times in the last 2 months.

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.

True, but a nice set of turbines wouldn't look out of place ;)

I actually was in touch with the sellers, and i believe its a V-6 car.  Here are some additional pics they sent me.  I think they would accept $2500 cash in hand.  Its clean but far from perfect.....

Oops, I'll edit it to say 3.8, I could have sworn it said 5.0 on one of the other ads.

If someone wants me to lok at this, I have no problems doing so and taking pics for you. I also know someone with some stock 14" rims laying around if you wanted to pick up some cheap rims to drive it home. I think you would need to put one tire on them though.

There down to $2k cash/money order now. I could hook you up with a set of 14" rims, need one tire, drive it home. Anyone shows enough interest in this, I'll take some better pics, or even store it for you for a bit if you can't pick it up right away. Its about 25 miles from me.
