I couldn't look at the pics but I think it is Tom Tates car. I would have thought whoever bought it, would restore it. That sucks really bad!!!!!

Im really sick to my stomach...............

I agree with you 100%, but good luck over on that board. I got into it with "V8only" over there after he posted about buying a 1982 no-option, 106K original-mile coupe, and he then proceeded to post pics of he and his brother hacking up the car (read: pulling the original, unmolested motor/tranny and swapping in who-knows-what, while "giving" the original engine away).

Here is a link to the last thread, with a final footnote there from one of the Admins.

Oh I read it and threw up.

That really sucks! I was hoping it was still April 1st and it was a sick joke. Hopefully the guy sells it and buys a 4 banger instead.:(

:( :confused: :eek: :(
I wish I had a car to trade him to hack up. People are so damn illiterate!!!!

NoDrama43 04-04-2007 11:16 PM

maybe the new buyer wasn't briefed on the rarity of the car when he showed up with the all important, number one product..... $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

:rolleyes:

It looks that way, guys. He posted on FEP and looks like he's registering here, now. :)

I am the "illiterate" owner of this vehicle. Guess I may ruffle some feathers here....

I'm not going to hack it up. It won't find its way wrapped around a tree or face-planted into a retaining wall at a local track. It isn't going to find its way on concrete blocks behind a trailer. It also won't be a trailer queen...it will see regular street use and some weekend track time.

It will be semi-restored to its former glory, however no black/tan FHP color scheme since it will be a street driven vehicle. I've learned this car is a bit more rare than I had originally thought, so my ambitions may have to be toned down a bit. Anything I do to this car will be completely reversable (with probably the exception of weld-in subframe connectors...a foxbody necessity).
