Seller's Description​

Car runs good. Bad transmission doesn’t drive at all. Needs transmission. Has clean title. Bring a trailer.

Looking to get it for my girlfriend's son's first car. I figure if all it needs is a transmission and some of the cosmetic stuff you can see in the pics, it might not be a horrible buy. And if he's not interested in it I'll make it a commuter car for myself and not daily my Ram. That leads me to this question: does anyone have experience with this yard?

FYI, make sure that trans is for a 3.8L Mustang. The 4R70W came with two different bellhousing bolt patterns depending on if it was bolted up to a mod motor, or the 3.8L. I don't see in the listing if it says what that trans is from

Yeah, I didn't see any mention of it either, but it also seems to be a generic layout so as to not have 2 separate listings for the same part. Luckily they're close enough that I can pick it up and verify in person.

Guessing it's gone. The seller hasn't responded to my message.

This one's still available though, will go check it out this Saturday unless he sells it beforehand.

The "Americana" just makes it.

Right?!

It'll be left behind. I'm just hopeful that the seats are still in pretty good shape. AND I'm happy that they're not "racing" seats.....

He sent a video of it running last night. Apparently someone removed the muffler, but it still sounds kinda quiet so I'm guessing/hoping that the cats are still there. It also showed a few blemishes on the passenger side and the rear bumper. The bumper is the only REAL concern, but it's not a deal breaker or anything.

Apparently he's too busy today.
