Default Should I buy it, what do you think?

I am very interested in this car. And I really think that Im gonna try and buy itfriday night. Its got 98,000 miles on it. Ford B cam, 3.73's, headers, midpipe, flowmasters, upper and lower intake. Mass air flow, 5spd, hurst short throw, throttle body. It just needs some TLC and some paint. What do you guys think. I can probobly get it for 2500. I really like it as a nice project.

Doesn't look too bad but ask about the tranny. Its probably a Tremec T-5 but if its a 3500 or even better TKO grab it
