so my gf is coming home for college and im trying to find her a car...i found an SN95 GT from 94 with 160,000 miles on it pretty cheap
is the engine likley to be any good, and what automatic did these come with is it the c4? are there any problems differnt from my 89 5.0 that i should be aware of, thanks for any and all help. the price is 700 dollars by the way, automatic, cloth seats, black with a small dent in the door, havent seen pics or it in person yet, just wondering if its worth the hall to get there.

id say good deal, no in 94 ford built a better auto tranny (aode). as long as the engine has been taken care of properly they will go well into the 200k's

and the sn95 starts out at like what, 215 horsepower...

i know shops charge a fortune to do a head gasket, could i do one with just basic tools, never had to do one but always hear about peoples going, how hard is it on a efi mustang

its actually alot easier than most people make it out to be.

you basically remove the upper intake, all the EFI stuff, then drain the coolant, remove the lower intake, remove the valve cover, remove the rockers, unbolt the exhaust, and unbolt the head

If it hasn't been dogged/neglected all its life, the motor should be good to go for a long time. $700 sounds awful cheap for a 94, any reason in particular for the price?

prob 700 cuz oil is flying out the back

no if the guys being honest he just wants to get rid of it, its bone stock so the guys deff not a mustang person, just was his dd for a few years, says it has a small dent in the door prolly going to take a look at it next week if its still there.....thanks for the input
