Must be four wheel drive also! Plenty of ground clearance with those truck wheels and tires.

I would like to see the interior and for sure would have to drive it. Too many mods to judge by pictures.

 

Wheels and tires are off a late-model Mustang

 

I think he was being a smarty pants because it is sitting rather high. You couldn't build a car like that for the same money if you did all the work yourself. If the body and interior are in nice shape and it wasn't hacked together, the price isn't too bad in my opinion.

 

Did this have A/C at one time? I notice what appear to be extra inlet/outlet in the firewall and just wondered..........

 

It apears to be nice, but the 4x4 stance just does not work. I wonder if he had to do that to suff in the Mustang wheels?

 

I think I agree with freek. I pretty much like the set up but not all of it. Don't like the wheels, don't like the stance, don't like the shorty headers. But....if it's really nice in & out and runs perfect with no problems I might give him $4K.

 

I think you're right.
Obviously doesn't have A/C now though.

 

All GO no BLOW!

 

if your using that for a daily driver...that stall converter would get old real quick...just saying...be fun on the weekends cruzing around...but a little too snotty for daily use...my opinion..

 

Here Krash.. thiis is the ride we hope you end up with....))lol....not sure what your price range is ...but for the car here...seems like a wash& wax driver

For some reason a Beatles song keeps playing through my mind when I look at this car :banana:

 

""We all live in a yellow 57 ranch, a yellow 57 ranch''''

 

That's a nice one.
Saw a beautiful '57 Country Sedan at the last show I went to, down in Roseburg - sort of a 'Dreamsicle' paint scheme - orange/cream.

And on the yellow one - my budget ain't anywhere near that large.

 

Needs a two inch lowering all the way around with those wheels and tires...which I think look absolutely tits on this, BTW!!!

I like the car all the way...except for the air conditioning deletion! I need A/C, and just do not want a car without it these days.
