-New gaskets: timing cover, oil pan, water pump, thermostat housing,
-New front main seal
-Brand new ARP water pump bolts and timing cover bolts
-New Motorcraft platinum spark plugs I put in last week
-Brand new serpentine belt
-Full AutoMeter aftermarket gauge cluster with Pro Comp Ultra-Lite series gauges
-New AutoMeter coolant temperature sender and oil pressure sender
-will come with new ARP header bolts I have not put in
-aftermarket clutch
-new fuel filler neck seal and fuel pump screen/filter
Suspension/Body
-welded in subframe connectors
-Mach 1 Ford wheels 17x8 245/45ZR17 front and rear (will come with second set of wheels and tires : Ford GT Bullitts 17x8)
-rear disc brakes
-five lug converted hubs
-rear seats are deleted
-Paint is OK, not show quality or anything
-will include 20% pre-cut tint roll I bought off of eBay
What needs work:
-Body mouldings are damaged, I have a brand new unpainted passenger side door moulding from LMR.com that I will include
-Interior is missing some trim pieces
-driver side door does not lock
-No radio or tunes
-fuel gauge does not read properly
-speedometer reads twice as fast
-Heater is disconnected and bypassed back into the engine
-AC not hooked up, however compressor is there
-power steering rack has very small leak
-Previous owner had the hood fly open on the freeway thus damaging cowl panel (between windshield and hood) as well as the hood and slightly dinged the roof which would need fixing. Does not affect drive-ability what so ever, simply cosmetic.
-parking brake / e-brake does not work
-Since the gauge/instrument cluster is aftermarket the odometer reads ~34K miles however I am unsure of what the actual mileage is on the motor, transmission, body etc.
-brakes make noise when cold, haven't had a chance to look at them but may be normal if they are aftermarket pads
-headers have a slight crack and create an exhaust leak. Not very noticeable past 3000rpm.
-reverse lights don't work
Car is fast and very loud but as I mentioned it is still a project car due to the stuff it needs. Most of them are simply cosmetic as the car itself runs and shifts pretty good. Asking 4500 OBO.
Feel free to message with any questions.
Thanks for looking.
