Definitely an "overbuilt" car, wouldn't you agree?

I think Greg means there is a lot of stuff to strip off, to get to the core vehicle.

By the way, ship me your ECU. I need it for Wes & Robert to reprogram.

Let me know what the cost will be.

Thanks!

whats a good price thats fair to you, i bought the car not runing so im not sure whats good, but im pretty sure it was jsut the lower timing chain that took a dump. but whatever sounds god to you and u pay shipping and if it dose not work ill refund ur money.yeah the car is going to take alot of work but hey thats what i like about it, its going to be rebuilt from the gorund up new wiring harnes and all geting ride of all the luxury, and jsut going for the things that i need. its going to be a fun car to drive when im done.

Best wishes on your project.Many are holding down the strictly OEM set, so it's nice to see someone take a stab at this. I'd even do it myself if I had ten or so G50's and lots of cash at my disposal, (I too am kinda fond of the stealthy stock look).Anyway, best of luck and keep us posted.

Oh, and BTW. I'm assuming that $300 price included those killer 15 inch Mustang tri-blades?

The under dashboard reinforcement is impressive, but that is a scary picture otherwise.

Where did all the corrosion in the passenger's footwell come from?

Good luck on your project.

He said the car wasn't running due to a chain guide failure. Rehabilitating it into a 4-door drifter is much better than just junking it.

I love it! My q45 has strange chain noises and now no oil pressure and as i was taking dimensions tonight i noticed the rear main was leaking. I'm stripping the drivetrain out and doing something custom. Its a secret till its at least bolted in.

I was worried that as these cars aged, no one would want to invest the time and money to keep them running. But instead, their super low resale has financially justified some amazing modifications. Nice!
