1971 In AZ

Found this browsing around for cars I won't be buying. Under the hood looks fresh but seems like a pretty steep price for a car without the original motor/trans. Later model 302 could be out of anything.

Yep, that's @carguy47 he's a member on here.

I can believe he’s got $25k in it. Who doesn’t?

Oh I believe it, if I hadn't already committed to the one I have I would 100% went and looked at it. That's awesome, didn't realize he was a member! I was looking at a 70 cougar a few years ago that originally had a 351c, had been replaced with a 302. Came out of a fairmont....so I had flashbacks for a second.

**Update**Just found his add in here for it! Badass ride.

Don't we all.

Huh, as we all know and have found out, it's all the little missing stuff that adds up.
Car is an "M" code with AC, and yes, such a shame the 351C and trans were missing, as well as the bright red/black deluxe interior.
Car does have all new floors, subframes and trunk pans. That was a plus when I bought it.
302 is out of a Thunderbird (I was told by the PO).
C4 was rebuilt, NEW everything, including RAM air hood and components, Saginaw quick ratio power steering box and pump.
I just enjoy driving it to Cars & Coffee cruises!

Engine looks like late 1980’s TBird, just like my 73. At least the front assessory drive does.

Even in primer these cars look bad ass!
