I'm with 49er on this one. Interior shows that the guy didn't take care of the car. Probably just beat the crap out of it, not to mention the ugly ricer body kit on it.
I'd pass on this one and keep looking or do a PI swap on your ride.

thanks guys. ill trust you on this one. i couldnt get the pictures to enlarge too well.
its done up well but the guy whos selling it prob didnt take care of it.
my cars not perfect either but you can expect that from a high mileage car.
it still shines up well and looks great. only issues is it burns a little oil(maybe 2 quarts inbetween oil changes) and the throw out bearing is making noise plus the running issue which i think is an intake gasket. it ran strong and havent had problems with it except for the intake manifold cracking and i think the problem now is from an intake gasket leaking.
if i build my car im getting a low milage or new/rebuilt shortblock and going with a set of ported pi heads or something better if i have the cash.
it would be nice to trade my car as is for a car already built up though.

thats true. i plan to check them out and test drive them before trading.
the guy with the cobra sounds more legit cause he wants my car fixed and 1-2k is fair.
said he wants a better daily driver,idk why hed build it and then sell it for a better daily driver.
maybe too much power than he was looking for. or needed an engine and trans and the guy built it and is trying to make money off it.
