Ford Mustang 1979 Description
Barn find!This is the perfect light weight Foxbody to build into a drag car.It's a factory V8 car 302/5.0L with a C4 and it's had an 8.8 swap done already!2902lb pictured with full interior (I have scales)
The car has been on non-opp since 1996! No DMV penalties.
I changed the oil, ut fresh gas in it, new electric fuel pump and it fired right up! No smoke.
The car has 93K on the odo.An 8.8 rear end swap with working posi. (The burnout tire marks can been seen in the photos.)The PO told me is has rebuilt heads from a 68.302(5.0) with oil filter relocation kit and oil cooler.C4 with what seems like a shift kit. And it has an aftermarkettransmissioncooler.

It is NOT California smog legal.
