I worked on one with a 400 this week and did a lot of crap that needs to be done to make it work.
Anyways, I would say over 99% of people that have a chevy 350, 400 or big block in a mustang are in a fox. And all of those I have seen are straight up race cars. Around here about 4 out of 5 at the track have a chevy engine. Would they be interested in your car? No. They use a mustang because they are cheap, make better looking cars than old Camaros and are lighter than the new ones. If your chassis was set-up right, it would be worth something.
With that said, the car is probably worth a 1000. It would have to run though. No one wants scrap for a 1000 when it would ony bring 350 at the scrapyard.

That is one sweet looking fox.
Yeah, most cars around here are chevy stangs. And on race night, a chevy usually wins. Course 90% of the engines there are chevy engines. There are a few fast fords around though. Some of those guys have been around a long time and making Fords run fast for a long time. I guess if I had ran 30 or 40 different windsor combos in my life, I would know what works too.lol
