1998.5 Silver Frost SVT:
3L short block and heads (around 80k miles, all new bearings, gaskets, seals, & timing chains), SVT intake, & cams
DMD
BAT struts & springs
Racebits SS headers, BAT y-pipe & cat
Filled roll resistors
Clutchnet yellow pressure plate and kevlar / organic disc
a couple transmission upgrades
Enkei 5-spoke 18's w/ Nankang tires

The transmission is busted. I had a local shop rebuild it and they botched it, had to pull it and send it to Terry Haines to fix it. He did a great job with it but it looks like one problem was still hiding. I made it about 6 months but now makes a grinding noise in forward gears when on the throttle, it's quiet in reverse. I had the ring and pinion replaced and it appears they didn't get the crush sleeve crushed enough. But that's my opinion, I don't know for sure. Regardless, I don't have a place to work on the car so I had to get a new one and the SVT has to go.

Outside is a little rough, interior in pretty good shape. AC isn't working at the moment, other than that it's in pretty good shape. Would make a good parts car if nothing else.

Sorry... kinda spaced on that... Car is located in Toledo, OH. I'll see if I can get some pictures up later tonight.
 
You parting it out? How much for the purge solenoid? The sunroof motor cover and the rear ford emblem and trim piece (the long skinny silver one) shipped to 25271
