Purchasing a 67 fastback please help!
Hello team, im new to this forum and want to intro myself!
I have a 2015 50th Wimbledon White 6 Speed, and always loved Mustangs.
Tomorrow I am looking at a Eleanor Clone for sale (Please dont hate me) Its my Dads dream car and Im going to get it for him!...... Based on your advise.
This guy I found through my local chapter is selling it, as his personal issues have gotten in the way and i think he has way more in to it then he wanted.
He has sent me the following info on the car and mainly the engine and need to know if someone can guesstimate how much he has in to the engine at least.
Here goes:
1) Original S code, GT Souther car
2) Car taken down to metal, surface rust taken off.
3) Underbody coated with Chasey saver
4) Dynamat throughout body
5) Mustangs to Fear Eleanor Kit
6) Chassis, 4 link with coil over adjustable shocks
7) Ford 9" rear end with curry 3rd member 3.55 ration with traction lock
8) Global west subframe connectors
9) Driver side torq box installed
10) Front , is a rod and custom mustang 2 coil over suspension ( no shock towers)
11) 4 wheel power brakes
12) Power steering
13) Classic Air conditioning
14) Dart Block 347 Stroker, Planed, Hot Tanked, Fluxed (whats that mean?)
15) Trick flow twisted (whats that mean?)
16) Wedge Aluminum Heads
17) Reichard Racing aluminum Intake
18) Air box and fuel rails 57lb injectors
19) Novi 2000 supercharger
20) Hooker long tube Headers
21) Methanol injection
22) Holley hp EFI engine mgt system
23) Aluminum fuel tank ( Baffled, automotive stealth 380 in tank pump)
24) Shelby interior, gauges etc.
25) ididit tilt steering column
26) shelby foot pedals
27) TKO 500 tranny, hurst shifter.
Im not sure how much this would be, and even the engine is above my knowledge scale. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks so much!

Welcome to the forum.
Based off that list and assuming the motor received all new internals as well, and including the blower I'd guess there's at least 10 grand if not more under the hood. Hard to give an accurate number not knowing everything but that's my guess.
Fluxed means the bare engine block was thoroughly check for cracks before it was machined before the rebuild.
Trick Flow twisted wedge heads are very good heads, well respected with a good reputation.
I hope my son treats me like this when the time comes lol. Congratulations
