86 Tbird Elan 1 owner 88,000 original miles ROLLER

Well I have decided to use the drivetrain from the tbird for another car. The tbird was originally my grandmothers and was a 3.8, auto. I swaped in a crate motor and t5 and was just about to paint the car. The body is in nice shape ready for paint. engine compartment was smoothed and painted 03 sonic blue. It has an 86 v8 harness converted to mass air, 5 speed pedals, 3.55 turbo coupe rear end, 4 wheel disc, brand new rack, kyb struts, kyb shocks, tubular upper and lower control arms, fox mustang front control arms and spindles, v8 fuel lines, 255 in tank pump, chrome cobra r wheels (17x9). Interior is in perfect shape, was a full optioned car except sunroof and equalizer. I will include the stock hood and a turbo coupe hood and if I still have it a fiberglass cowl hood with it. I also have seperately a full black and grey leather interior out of an 87 TC. Will still consider selling it with motor and trans but I am not gonna give it Car is in Rockford, IL. Pm me for more details.  UPDATE, COMPLETE CAR WITH ALL EXTRA PARTS........$3000 firm for the next five days only. This is a steal with the drivetrain it has

Update, will still car complete and driving..... I have just sold my mustang and this fox body must go to make room for the new toy. With the crate motor, world class 2.95, trans, suspension. Motor is worth $2000 as it sits, trans 5 speed swap is worth 1200-1500. I will sell complete car with all extra hood, interiors, engine parts, everything I got as I no longer have a need for any of it. $3500 takes everything I have. I will cut a deal.... First 3000 by the next 7 days only
