Default rod knock or something else???

So my neighbor has an 01 Bullitt with 67k on it and wants to trade for my streetbike but there's a problem. It has a knocking sound that I can't figure out. It doesn't lose power, oil pressure is right so I'm lost lol. I got a video here to listen too but no way to upload it and a couple pics of car. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Put the video on youtube, and are we sure that's a Bullitt it looks black it should be green or is the lighting just that bad?

So weird I have never seen them in anything but the highland green. That's pretty awesome though, Bullitt's will be collector cars, could be a good investment. Hopefully he did not beat the **** out of it. Original wheels?

The video is pending upload on YouTube. I think it's a rod knocking but still might be a good trade ad my bike is only worth bout 3k

Hard to say though my 2013 GT always had a slight tick everyone says its normal. But yeah who knows might be worth getting looked at by a good shop or just take it by Ford.
