What do you guys think about this?

Should run 14's and reach 100 MPH on the quarter? I think not...

Wouldn't care if it did or not. Racing's meaningless to me. Car looks OK (nothing more than OK though) otherwise.. needs paint, obviously.. and they need to post some interior shots. Wouldn't mind taking that drivetrain and sticking it in a good Fairmont or Zephyr, if it's anything like he's making it out to be. Would I pay that much for it? No, I'd rather put that money into said Fairmont or Zephyr.

Yeah, I'm wondering if the interior is shot as well.
Makes my '86 look showroom new.:hick:

Why? Big valve ported head, exhaust, a cam, and a T3 will run 14's at 100mph.

The car is basically drivable but I haven't really made an effort to check it over for road worthiness since I put it together. It is sold as-is.

On ebay, that normaly means, I've driven it, it's not road worthy, but I'm not going to tell you that.

Just like if you find something and they say, "It's been in the basp00get for a couple of months and I havn't tested it" when all they have to do to test it is plug it in.
