Might pick up a 95 Lincoln Mark VIII tomorrow. Going to gut it and make a strip car with the shell. Not going to use the current drivetrain. The DOHC motor has some kind of problem. The owner was told it had a busted piston. But he's not a car guy. Going to sell the engine and trans too. The new drivetrain will be headed by a 331 sixpack, backed by a yet to be determined transmission and a solid rear axle. Anyoine interested can email me or speak up here, unless the Mods have an issue with that.

The Ranger's been defanged. I pulled the 331 last year after the "Kid" sucked the intake gaskets in after a romp to 7500 rpms (he let off the gas then in gear, too much vacuum for the gasket top, sucked one down into the port) I replaced it with a milder 5.0, similar in specs to an Exploder 5.0, but with ported E7's and a Ford A321 intake and carb. I just use it to run parts, commute to work when the weather's bad, etc and I don't want to get the 06 Stang dirty.
