If I were going to drop that kind of green , Id buy that Eleanor replica shown in the other thread. Before yall roast me , listen to reason...At least you can drive it and not lose an hour off your life for every minute its on the road .... This car IS the engine. Like a 70 LS6 Chevelle. The car is the motor. The block cracks , and youve just lost the better part of your investment . If he were selling this as 1 of 2 SCJ Mustangs , but with a factory replacement block , or a 428 built like nobodys business , he would probably only get around 30 grand. Id be too afraid to risk sending a piston through the block to ever break 35 mph. At least with a Shelby, you are buying the car, not the engine. Original engines are good in Shelbys, but they dont make or break them like something of this sort. As long as its in the registry , its a Shelby. But put another engine in this , and , well, its not really a SCJ anymore .
