The guy at the dealership said he got it from a "white dude from Antioch" does anyone know who it was so I can ask him about the engine build,etc.? Here's the link:

P.s. beware...If anyone is interested in the car, make sure you call the guy and have it ready to drive and started up before you head down there. I drove all the way there after he said come down and drive it, ready to go,etc, when i showed up the guy was at lunch when we had an appointment time set up, had to wait 15 minutes only to find out it was sitting in the back of a junk yard for 6 months, dirty as hell, wouldn not statt. Found out the battery needed to be replaced after he used THREE jump boxes at the same time. Lol. Then after battery was replaced he tried starting it and a horrible metal to metal screech came from the engine bay. Looked around and found out the starter was hanging off the flywheel. The dude didn't have any tools so I could even hear it or drive it. I was pissed.
Also, The hood is cracked and sits about 2-3 inches off the body lines, and barely latches diwn. Super sketchy and cannot drive it in its current condition or it will fly up. The saleen wings has the paint peeling and a bald spot with primer the size of a basketball. Definitely not as clean as it looks. Only goods are the wheels, interior, and suspension, can't say about engine because it wouldn't start,but I doubt it's really a 347 stroker. Good luck if anyone wants it 👍 I wouldn't pay more than $5-6k.
Now if I can find the owner that did the work, I'd love to re-think everything and possibly buy it. But not as is right now.
If anyone can get me in touch with him, I'd appreciate it.
Just giving everyone a heads up because I see everyone is looking for a foxbody now that it's tax return season. Haha.
END RANT! ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
