Default i need a new ride

well i almost totalled my 88 GT a few days ago
and i miss it but im not getting rid of it
so my plan was to put a 302 ford racing crate in it
but now i have the motor but no car
so now i need to find a new 88-93 5.0 for my motor
i only want to spend like 3000 but the catch is i dont care about the engine
and i plan on rebuilding the trans... preferably auto but either will work
so can anyone near phoenix help me out?

dude your in total luck today, they have a guy who has an 87-93 lx(coupe body) its an aod also. 5.0 also. hes asking $400 for the body its like 4 diff colors becasue he was trying to do the painting himself it doesnt look that bad besides the mismatched colors. but 400? you cant beat that then just get a paint job to put it all one color.

Look on craigslist.com first then autotrader.com, then collectorcartraderonline.com , i'm sure that you'll find one locally for a good price. Where do you live?

some girl stopped in the middle of a main road and i rear ended her...
the light was green and i didnt see her brake lights because the sun was in m eyes
and she had a jeep so my car went right under hers and did like 4000 worth of damage to mine
and 0 to hers
so im going to get a new car drop the crate motor i have in it
and i want to fix up my old one and put a big block in it
or at least that sounds good in my head i dont know if it will really happen tho

well i have 5.0 crate so i would have to get a new computer, rear end, tranny, and fuel pump.... and im sure there is more but those are the main things and it would just be cheaper in the end to get a 5.0 now
