Hard-core CEG'er
Ok so I am seriously considering selling my svt or possibly trading it. If the right price or trade doesn't come along then I will keep it. First off if I trade the other car must not be a black svt. I am wanting a t-red, sil-fro, or t-green. It doesn't matter if it's a 2.5 or a 3L. I would rather lean toward a 2.5 but like I said 3L will work. I also want it to have suspension work with newer tires. I do not want a fixer upper....I want something with little to zero issues. Anything major don't bother. So here are the details about my car..
GOOD:
- 98 svt EO blk/mnb w/ 257k miles on body 60K miles approx on motor
- ported 3L w/ 3L cams
- msds headers
- main cat cut out w/ stock exhaust
- stock transmission w/ stage 2 competition clutch
- ebay air filter
- new serp belt, all water hoses have been replaced, ps pump replaced recently and is refurb OEM
- new refurb alt installed 02/11
- less than 10k miles rear pads
- paint is fairly nice...front bumper repainted May 2010
- pre-98 trunk w/ spoiler
- all 4 jp covers and mesh is intact
- has fog light mod
- AC works great and blows out where it is suppose to
- No CEL's right now
- NO LEAKS at all!
BAD:
- paint does have a couple of places where the clear is coming off on the roof, mirrors, and pass front fender but they aren't bad and paint still shines
- needs tires and alignment
- driver seat has tear in the bolster
- antenna goes up and down but needs help going down...lol but does have pre-98 base
- 3rd brake light broke but will throw in newer one
- cracked windshield
All in all the car is a great car. I am just tired of owning a black one. I have owned it since 2003. It drives good, shifts great, and for the most part everything works on it. The 3L was done by 3L duratec. Me and OB1 installed it. Originally the motor came out of a wrecked t-red that bought last year. It has a base tune right now but could get more out of it with a dyno tune.
The only other issue is it did catch fire last year. Ford installed an alt and pulled the mega fuse out of it's location causing it to bounce around and spark a fire. Luckily I was in fron of the same dealer when it happened so I was able to put it out before it damaged the car too much. The exterior didn't get any damage. The fire did burn all vacuum hoses, coil pack, and some of the insulation on the fire wall. This was all replaced but I still have a gas fume smell. I am going to try and fix it before the sell it. The car does run fine tho and does not leak gas.
I have tried to be as honest as I can but if you have any questions please pm me. There have been several members on here who have seen this car in person and can vouch for it. Like I said if the right deal doesn't present itself then I will keep it. Price and location are as follows:
- asking $2500
- Car is located in Dallas, Georgia. I am about 20 miles NW of Atlanta
