[QUOTE="97chromecobra, post: 15639348, member: 147539"] I have a 1997 Ford Mustang SVT cobra for sale that needs engine work. This will be an ideal start for anyone looking for a project car. THE BAD: It currently has what I think is a "rod knock" sound coming from the motor. The car still runs and the sound is not noticed until above 2500 rims. I have had the car to my mechanic and they have found significant metal debris in the oil, so the thinking is a bad rod bearing. The car has 95k miles and it has been my daily driver for 6 years (daily driver is a general term as I only work 3 days a week). The car is in pretty good shape for a car this old and prior to the rod issue (whiched popped up a couple months ago and I have had it parked ever since) I had done a lot of upgrades and repairs in anticipation of building the car up. In the last 3 years and 10k miles (as i said I only drove it 3 days week for a total of 80 miles per week) I have: -put in a rebuilt T-45 transmission -rebuilt the rear end with 373 gears -upgraded rear suspension with new shocks and links -replaced front shocks -serviced AC system. The car also has Ford motorsports springs 1" lower (with a bumb steer kit) Maximum motorsports caster camber plates EBC dimpled and slotted rotors/pads Short throw shifter (not sure of the brand) Ford Motorsports fr500 rims Jensen flip out face radio. Leather wrapped fr500 steering wheel C&L MAF and conical filter 2 cat (car originally came with 4) H-pipe and flowmaster cat back. The interior is in good shape as well for a mustang of this generation......there is the typical wear on the driver seat but no tears or rips in the upholstery and the plastic/vinyl carpets are all in good shape. $3000 obo Note: I have many more pics of the car but i was only able to upload 1 (file size to big i guess) so i can email more pics upon request.[ATTACH=full]93760[/ATTACH] Thanks, Matt [/QUOTE]
