It looks pretty good the engine bay needs some cleaning tho.And when you change the oil only use motorcraft or wix or napa gold oil filters.

Thanks guys and yes I paid 6 grand for the car and im very pleased with it. Planning on doing a restomod. New wheels, paint, new chrome bumpers, maybe a cowl hood, lifting the back a bit with air shocks, new stereo system and all new random parts the car needs. I wish I could convert it to disc brakes but that's a lot of money lol. It basically original, I do believe the motor was swapped but I do not mind the semi built 302 sounds great. I love this car. Between myself and my brother we are sharing the car for now he has an 01 GT convertible mineral gray, and i have an 00 Audi TT, and a 84 Alfa Romeo Spider. My first muscle car should be a fun build.

Nice car and very nice price. I would have said around the $10k mark myself. Even though 10k is high for a coupe, it looks like you'll be able to drive it around town and beyond as well as just plain pimp looking!

Get a breather cap for that head cover!

Don't use air shocks they are a big no no on a unibody car.Only safe ways to lift the back up is new leafs or a load leveler aka add a leaf it will lift one inch and you need one for each side.
