going to keep it

XXI bought this car a couple months back to do a V8 swap, just don't have the time. 3.8, bad head gasket, looks like it was rust proofed when new, very little rust. Feeling out offers. The car is white with grey interior.  PM me if you need specific pics and I can get them.

Interested but think the price is too high? Make an offer. I would consider trade for motorcycle also.

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.

That's why I'm looking at the" you pull it". Gives the car the chance to keep giving. Time is of the essence, snows starting to fly, wife would like the garage back. The space I was counting on to do the original 5.0 swap kind of fell through.
