it has 155k on a 3.8L . runs good, but thinking of an eight. anyone done a swap?

Nice car!


I've always liked T-Birds.
I had an ' 84 that I traded in for my Stang. It was a good running car.

Nice. I've always liked those T-birds when they get a little help with rims and stuff. They can look pretty muscular. Never cared much for the dash and windshield though. My 85 TC was kinda crappy that way. I loved the seats that were in it though. Way better than the stang.

nice t-bird srv1 i alway's liked that body style, a 5.0 will fit in there nicely, those older 3.8 v - 6 s are terrible on head gaskets, but the body on that car is in great shape, what kind of wheel's are those? good luck on a v -8 swap, it's a sweet ride.cya:)

well the engine has 155k on it. it runs good, but burns a little oil. valve covers leak, front cranks seal leaks, and the power steering hose leaks. needs drivers motor mount. thats all i know what is wrong with it when i had it on the lift.

it cost me $800. very good conditions considering it came from southern PA. i want to put a V8 in it. but dont know if the 3.8 has the same bellhousing as the V8:confused: it will be carb'd since i dont want to spend all that money for FI. i dont mind converting it, but rather have carberator. its cheaper to build. what parts off a Fox body will work? i have stock driveshaft and coil springs form my 90. will these work? also i kept the 2 1/4" stainless tails that were originally on my 90 when i bought it. thanks for the compliments!

crazy horse, they look like Saleen's, but i dont know?!:confused:

i dont know either, but a great looking bird,you got a great deal on it, the body look's excellent, good luck # 1 crazy man - from # 2 crazyman,l8ter:D :D :p
