Bump for a very nice ride.

I say 5.0 swap it.

There are plenty of other candidates out there that I could agree with you on your suggestion; but I firmly believe this car should NOT be one of them.

Guess I should add that when I first got the car it had just a pinch over 10,000 miles on it.  When I got it, I did a full motorcraft tune up (plugs, wires, cap and rotor).  Also, it had a slow start condition, so I dropped the tank and put a walbro 255lph pump in it.  The original fuel tank was rusty, so I replaced the tank also. 

The original ler/tailpipe had some holes in it, so I replaced the mid pipe, ler and tailpipe. 

Oh, and mcb82gt is my brother and he can vouch for how nice this car is.

Indeed, it is an extremely nice car.  Anyone should be proud to own it.

I think this is the same car I owned from 2006-2009. It's a real treat, even smelt like a new car when I had it.

Spring time bump.  Lowering the selling price to $4,900.

Great looking car and nice low mileage example.  Great price too! I can't imagine someone won't buy it as the weather turns warmer. What a nice turn-key cruiser/car show ride.

Good luck!
