Wouldn't be hard to undo that Chevy and drop a proper 5.0 in its place... better yet, a Terminator That ad concerns me though - for a car with a lot of work done to it the owner has said very little and hasn't provided much in the way of pics. For some reason that ad is screaming "DANGER WILL ROBINSON! DANGER!!!" Quote Selected
Awww C'Mon... Reply #7 – August 25, 2007, 02:40:07 PM Yea those pics suck, but the car looks amazing. To bad its just a 350, now if it was like a 454, i would consider it OK. 350's over used.... Looks like they did a good job though Quote Selected

Awww C'Mon... Reply #9 – August 25, 2007, 07:51:18 PM Yeah sorry to say but chev engine in a ford kills it even if the rest of the vehicle is nice Quote Selected
Awww C'Mon... Reply #10 – August 25, 2007, 08:01:22 PM I assume the builder was bored with other projects, and decided to "hot-rod" a tbird. How about this for a Mustang? Quote Selected
Awww C'Mon... Reply #11 – August 25, 2007, 08:18:03 PM Ive kinda always wanted to find a nice 67-69 camaro and drop a ford motor in it. Maybe a 351c 4v and make a road racer out of it. Or a light nova with a 2.3t? Chevelle with a 460? 63 Corvette with a 5.0 cammer... Quote Selected
Awww C'Mon... Reply #12 – August 26, 2007, 09:57:54 AM Not sure how anyone can say it’s a nice car with the pic’s supplied. For one they only show the hood area, doors could be falling off and it’s been rear ended by a freightliner but since its bright orange it’s a nice car? Honestly from what I can see it would appear to be 1/20th scale and made by Revell .Defiantly big red flags on that add, glad to see zero bids and would hope it will stay that way. Concerning the engine swap, assuming it really IS an actual car, and assuming it really IS nice, “blasphemy”? naaa not at all, As a matter of fact I would be flattered if I had an 84. Obviously this guy has no problems with the idea of mixing engines to body’s, so of all of Chevelles, impalas, Cameros, Monti Carlo’s, Vegas, Cuda, Chargers, Challangers, Darts, etc etc etc… out here he could have used, this fella choose a 1984 Ford Thunderbird as the car that had the shape, style, quality of workmanship that he wanted to put his money into. I wish he had done a 1988 bird! And as some pointed out, it’s just an engine swap away from whatever anybody would want it to be. Quote Selected
