i drove and checked it out but under the hood there was oil around front timing cover and on and around heads. he said the oil dipstick tube broke off and he started it up and it went everywhere. also he said he put grease around the rear diff to keep from locking up since it was stored alot of its life but it looks like it leaks and threw diff fluid everywhere. i drove the car and it ran great had a small exhaust leak but shifted good and even had the shift delete. I love the car and i can get it for 3200 but im worried about problems i dont know what to look for. Any advice and he had a dyno sheet for 495 ponies and said it ran 11.90's. that all sound about right??


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Run from it and him or go over the paperwork and verify each and every part , including pulling a valve cover to see rockers and rods.. But I bet he printed papers from the net.

The Dyno sheet and 11.90's don't add

Any way to prove the car was the car on the dyno graph?? for 3200 I would ****** it up the dip stick is no big deal the 10 bolts are cheap and easy to change any pics of the car??

It has some major issues but if you can verify all of the aftermarket parts are present I'd jump on it for $3200. Also, the 495 dyno sheet is total BS... even at the flywheel that doesn't make sense.

Nope. Looks like lpe supertube. Definitely not stock air box. And for that price, I'd be all over that car. Rear ends are a dime a dozen, small exhaust leaks can usually be fixed fairly easy, hell of he ain't lying bout the parts, you've got more than the asking price just in parts.

That's definitely a Moroso.

If you buy the car do me a favor and take a crowbar to the body kit. This isn't NFS Underground.

hmmm do a google search on that email. Seems that guy has alot of toys he has sold for only being 16. Also has a 98 mustang for sale. Just saying you have to watch your back in todays day in age. May not even be worth the 3200
