I get on ebay....

I see there is a 71 Cougar... (which uses and SHOULD HAVE the same power windows as my shhhTANG

bid is up to 2200.00. He claims to have a rebuilt 429 and tranny. So my thinking is I pull the 429, find a cool 71 without a motor an tranny and install.... then pull the power window stuff and put in my Mach.... hopefully sell both and be out ZERO dollars for my power window stuff. there is a description in which seller claims he rebuilt the 429, started the car with bad fuel and after a few minutes it stalled. ( which we all know it would have never started and RUN for any amount of time on bad fuel). I become suspusious.

I send a note asking if he had receipts for the rebuild and did all the electronic parts work eg: the power windows and .....(PAY ATTENTION)... the A/C

Here's the reponse....

yes have many receipts. don't know, what components your asking about. where would the ac fit, do you see the pictures.

I'd email back and tell him the acceleration compensator goes on the right shock tower, and you'll give him a $100 for just that part.
