seems like a great deal no matter what you will save a lot of money with what he put into mods and no matter what you have to pay to play so you build your car and eventually something will break and you will have to put something into it so it's not such a bad move if you can break even or have cash to afford it. Def a nice looking car too.

The untimate plan would be to pick up a beater to drive during the winter and when ever its crappy outside. After summers over and ive made more money. The biggest thing im conserned about would be how reliable the car is gonna be becasue if something major crapps out im basically screwed.

Looks like a loaded car with tons of extras for a steal. Go for it, that car has to be hitting atleast high 12s in the 1/4.

With that power. I would honoslty hope forhope for mid to low11's,with Full drag suspension, slicks, weld wheels, weight reduction, spraying of course. But you guys think the car could still go down the highway and just make trips to school and work? Even with the big cams, obously gas millage dosnt consern me but as far as reliability goes and cold starts?

That is a beautiful car. I would ****** that thing up FAST. HURRY. It has actually MORE than my car did when I bought it. bullit intake FTW! I believe EVERY WORD of 330rwhp. Livernois is a GREAT 2v specialist. Thats a STEAL.

I paid $300 more without the following

Ford Racing Chrome 18x9.5" 2000 Cobra "R" Wheels
Eibach Springs
10th Anniversary Cobra Brakes
Ford Racing Cross Drilled/Slotted Rotors
Cobra Front Bumper
Tune.

P.S. check out the specs on those CAMS!
