I have a reoccuring dream of me pulling the motor from the truck and putting it in the car. I think unfortunately it might happen someday when I get bored.

Nice man...I've got the '86 T-bird with the 5.0 and I get usually 24-25 mpg's regularly. The highest I've ever seen was 27 and this is mostly highway driving. I know the stangs are tuned a little different, but it should get you at least 20. That sounds like you got a great deal...We need pics!!

You managed 27 on the hwy, thats not bad. Id be very happy getting 22 on the highway. None of the family cars get that, except the saab but that likes to be broken for no reason.

Thats a pic taken from my window. The same view iv had of it for the last 10 years lol.

That looks great man...Put some new wheels, cowl hood, and tint the windows and it will definitely be a looker. You see, I am already making plans for it haha. Sounds and looks like you got a great deal and the aftermarket is almost limitless for those cars. Enjoy!!!
