Whats your opinion?
 

Im currently looking at a 88 AOD lx 5.0 which has 175,000 miles on it. Im not so much worried about the mileage as i am it being an aod. All im really looking to do is have something fun to cruse around in for awhile. Do you guys think ill really be disapointed in the automatic trans? Im planning on making arrangements with the owner this weekend to take a closer look at it. If it didnt have so many miles on it, i would consider swapping the trans out with a t5. oh, and the guy is asking 2200 for the car, but being that its been sitting on a lot for a month, im going to try and offer him 1500

If you are already considering a T5 swap, do yourself a favor and buy a 5 speed car.

That is some good advice:D

im also thinking about buying my buddies 91 firebird formula auto with the 305 and maybe swapping it out with a fastburn 385, rebuilding the trans, exhaust and gears. i don't know. im so undecided at this point. my heart still says mustang :)
