Vehicle Detail

I am offering this car for sale as a parts car. Although the inpection is expired it is still drivable (not on public roads) and has a clean title so if you wanted to try to repair it to pass PA inspection, you could. There are many good parts for someone restoring/repairing their SVT. Parts for these cars are becoming scarce. The good: 16" alloy wheels are really nice, just need to be cleaned and all four "SVT " center caps are there; I always used Mobil 1 synthetic oil in the engine; Front bumper and side skirts are in good condition (the bumpers alone are going for right around $1000 each according to a local body shop); The stainless factory dual exhaust system is in good shape and sounds really nice; all side glass, sunroof glass and rear window are in good condition; Leather is so-so. The bad: Both rear springs are broken; Rust perforation on rocker panels. Damage to synchros make shifting into 2nd gear difficult. The ugly: Lower body rust starting to show; Rear bumper ruined from collision; Interrior is partially disassembled from me removing my stereo; Right front body damage from deer strike; Left front body damage from W** M*** not tightening lug nuts properly=wheel-1...fender-0. I will respond promptly to all questions. UPDATE for those interested in interior parts: In the picture taken closest to the front passenger seat there is a white, squiggly line on the left passenger seat bolster. This is not a tear or cut, it is a silver twist-tie. I also installed some indiglo-style gauge covers in the cluster. They still look white during the day and are marked "SVT " similar to the original. You can choose blue, green, or a color half way between. The brightness can also be controlled independent of the needle brightness depending on how you wire them. These are MUCH easier to read than the originals. They are business card-thin, non-permanent overlays and can be easily removed without removing the needles. The original illumination is completely intact.
