1995 Ford Lightning with AFR heads, comp cam, bassani equal headers, k&n, stud mount rockers they are like orange or gold I can't tell. I'm a lightning noob but this feels like it would smoke my old mustang.

Clean title #1558 of the 2280 made and 1 of 695 red trucks. Has the flush rear bumper can't remember what its called, sliding rear window and power mirrors. Everything works with 150,000 miles on it.

The only photos I have are of the craigslist ad,...once its cleaned up some I'll update.











Paid $5k,...I think the deal was fair for both parties.

That's my old truck!!! I miss it.

Those aren't the pictures I posted on Craig's list though. Did you just buy it, or are you the guy that bought it off me 2 months ago?

Jesse

Oh, and it's a roll pan instead of a bumper.

roll pan yes thats it,...I couldn't remember what its called. I just bought it today cleaned out the garage and it's sleeping right now. Did the foglights work when you had it I don't think they are working right now.

If you get time pm me some info on it. They guy I bought it from was only able to tell me about it according to recipts that were supplied...Jesse is all over the receipts. Did you have a huge hook up at Vic Hubard or something???

Thing huals ass for sure. Can't wait till the rain goes away.

Thanks guys. Was a little scary buying something i know little about but seems to have turned out ok.

This weekend I'm pulling out the seats and carpet to get them shampoo'd. I'll be pulling the door panels off and taking them apart too for a good cleaning. Engine bay will get a good going over along a few other non expensive things.

Good candidate for a twin turbo kit.

Other than that they arent gonna go much faster than 13s without losing a ton of driveability.

Have fun!
