Bah do cheap build with a 1987-1993 5.0 Fox body Mustang, 1982-1992 3rd Gen F-Body or 1984-1996 C4 Corvette

Heck I will toss in some pulled form the local wreckers or have slowly picked-up or collected overtime 302W-351W (5.0/5.8) Windsor engine parts for my truck that I got kicking around if you want since they have no use to me. :P

Ouch that would be expensive compared to a more common and supported by the aftermarket 5.0/302 Windsor swap to a 5.8/351 Windsor or 408 Windsor Stroker swap in a Fox body.

I've had 51 cars in 13 years. Looking to buy one more in the next month followed by at least 2 more in 2015.
Looking to get a $500 pos to get back and forth to work in because I am letting my 2013 ram go. Too expensive.
With the beater, I'll save and get something dependable for the family, and then a project car. Probably a Toyota Cressida to throw a 1jz in. (last one got stolen)


Some were builds, some were for work, some were brand new, some were just because they were cheap.

that would be nice paint a 2nd gen 1964-1965 Ford Flacon a nice Forest Green with silver Racing Stripes like pictured below and that would be pretty decent IMO

I always wanted a since my day in HS/College a decent 1987-1993 Fox-body 5.0 LX Notchback Coupe in that in that Deep Forest Green
