Brutal honesty time: When I purchased this car originally it was sold to me as a SSP. I believed it; it turns out it isn't and is a converted 4 cylinder car-- thank you eBay Autocheck for bringing this to my attention. However, it now has the 5.0, AOD and the 8.8" rear so it's pretty much a 5.0 LX notch. At the end of the day you would be about $2,000 into it in mods alone by the time you got a 5.0 to this point. The price is reflective of it not being an original 5.0. The car runs fast, the AOD shifts great and has the correct line pressure. The interior has power seats from a 90's vintage Probe installed that actually give quite a bit more legroom than the stock seats did.
The 10 hole honeycomb wheels have been plastidipped flat black with the exception of the center caps. They can easily be taken back to stock by peeling off the coating.
All of the power windows and locks function as they should. The body is in decent shape with a ding on the passenger side rocker, the fuel door and a door ding on the passenger fender. (Pictures of the flaws are in the gallery.) There is a crack in the windshield. The car has zero rust on it anywhere.
The power steering pump has been bypassed because I prefer the manual feel. However, it does function perfectly and does not leak.
This is a fantastic car that I would trust to drive anywhere.
I am selling it because I am going to focus in on my 1966 F100 because too many projects equals not much progress on any of them.
The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the listing at any time. The car is being sold as-is with no warranty. An independent inspection is encouraged prior to the end of the auction.
