That's clean, Id roll that in a heartbeat! Drop an 87-93 302 swap, maybe a built dart block big bore stroker with a turbo or SQ blower with some stock mufflers & go beat up on a bunch of street cars lol...

I'd throw a junkyard 5.3 GM truck motor and a 4L80e (bone stock) with a DIY turbo kit and go run 10s or deeper [Smile] I wouldn't mind paying $1,150.

It is ugly, but that's the beauty of it! Not to mention the fact that it has a fox chassis with 4 doors!

now what about getting it to flip... you think there is much room for making money with minimal money going into it. basic cleaning, get rid of town hitch, clean engine, tune up and fix brakes... think it would get much money with that?

Different type of sleeper Damani. Most normal people look at your car & still know it's somewhat fast because it's a "50" lol... This they would look at as some old ugly grandma wagon & would never expect it to be fast.

I don't think it would really be worth more. At the end of the day it's an old ugly fairmont to 95% of the people on earth, only a real enthusiast in the know will truly appreciate it for what it is... But still won't fetch much more $$$. I dig it though! Lol

Ayyy... Thats actually pretty sick! With regular LX bumpers, no body kit, a less flashy color choice, & no racing stripes, that would be perfect, IMO!
