Okay, this is just downright scary...

As a side note, look at the different AC bracket that clears the scoops. Where does this come from?

I'm wondering how they retained the hydraulic clutch.

It is the most orginal TC I have seen in a long, long time.  Of cource minus the fact that they had to yank out the 2.3T.  If they left that in it would make it so much better.  At that point I would come up with the money!

I could not find WHY they swapped a 5k mile original TC to a 5.0
 
 
Did anybody else find a reason to screw up a car like tht then never drive it?

I can understand doing the swap, but yeah I don't understand the not driving part either.

If I had a 5 speed HO bird with 3.55's in the rear I'd probably drive the wheels off it.

They may have used the MN12 super coupe pieces.

I don't know how strong his love for this car is (the reserved) but if you could get a car like this for about 20k it would be great to get and drive.  Much better car than you can get new for 20k.

I like the V-8 and I think it's the car that Ford should have built, but they would have screwed it up somehow, like 2.73 gears.

I would drive this everyday and pile on the miles.

The car more than likely has a T-5, I wonder if they used a ranger slave cylinder inside the bell housing.  I've heard of this but never seen it.
