I know that intake. I think it’s name is Fred, and he is a painted tubular GT-40 upper intake with a adapter elbow for the SN-95 body.

I assume it’s a desirable intake.... over the OEM one....

Nah, it's a piece of junk You can send him back home, like I said, we miss him dearly, I'll pm you my address. I'll pay for shipping of course, after all, he is an escapee, there may even be a warrant out for him, he is kinda shady you know.

Don't let these two clowns lie to you. Fred's a totally tubular dude, and you should keep him around.

It’s on a 95 I’m looking at buying soon... just haven’t seen that intake before... making sure it’s not some homemade shade tree stuff

It's very much not, it's a "tubular" GT40 intake. Google that and you'll find a lot more like Fred here.

Well the guy doesn't know much about any other mods on the car/engine... he just sent some pics and that engine pic with the intake caught my attention. I will be looking at it sat and test driving...

Is he just flipping it?
I see a bolt missing and an odd blue plug wire.
Take a look at the title, some will tell when it was issued last, if he has only had it a few months look closer at the car he may be flipping a problem child.
Don't let on that Fred is valuable, ahhh, I mean a fugitive.

It’s a GT-40 tubular intake. Prob $500-750 depending on how clean it is

I’d buy Fred.

Guy in his 60s has it... took it in trade for a zero turn he had... owned it a few months and was driving it... needs 2 tires, window regulators, and a hood latch cable. That's all he knows about it. Showing 170K on odometer, he doesnt know any engine mod history, says it has a quiet exhaust on it and the heat and AC works... interior is clean, no rips or dash cracks...

I do not know why the intake is painted that way. They were silver/gray new. It looks more like header pipes this way. But this is what they based the Cobra and Explorer castings on this set of snake pipes.
