[QUOTE="langod, post: 14979696, member: 56170"] I don't think any of those are deal killers. Try to talk him down $500 or so. The heat-A/C issue as mentioned above is likely vacuum. The dash lights are an easy fix -- either fuse, new bulbs ([URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007I7D66S"]get LEDs, I did $10[/URL]) or just find a used cluster, swap it in <an hour. A light tuneup will (should) fix the hesitation. How many miles? $3500 should be either a pretty pristine car or low miles. (under 75000) edit: one other point. The '88 is a Speed Density car, right? They went to MAF in 89 or 90, I think. IIRC, SD cars take alittle more to get mods to work. On the flip side, the SD cars actually have about 20hp more to begin with. (Ford never published new HP numbers, just used the old ones, but based on Dyno numbers the MAF cars lost HP comapred to the earlier ones) [/QUOTE]
