He has a few other extra parts he is throwing in also and he says he will sell it to me for $3000. Is that a good deal? I never owned a 5.0L mustang so I don't know alot about them, I love Fox bodies and have been wanting one for a long time. Any info/advice would be great! Thanks guys.

I'm going to look at it this weekend, I haven't seen it in almost 2 years but it looked sweet back then. I'll snap some pics over the weekend.

Thats a good price.
Id swap in an AOD or T5 unless its just a track car. Not having overdrive sucks on the street/highway.

I wouldn't be driving it much, probably just something to cruise around on the weekends and take to the track every once and awhile. One concern for me is emissions, I know this car probably won't pass in my area, is there any way to title the car as a race/show car so it won't have to go through emissions?
