I live way over on the other end of the state and seems to be no one over this way. Just put my windshield in the other day and I am not even gonna describe it but next time gonna pay to have it done. Now I wait on the great state of VA to come inspect her.
I know she isn't the best looking svt. I paid $600 for her back in july. And she has come along way, still need a new hood and door.

How hard is the whole process for 3l? I have debating on doing a ported 3l cause I wanna maintain the 2.5 look. Ride the 2.5 till she dies, which might not be that long hard to say.
I had the motor done by another member on here, he shipped it up and i put all my 2.5L top end back on it. Sent the trans out for trans work. Got that back and started to slowly assemble it. The SVT has been down for a year in Nov. But the project was started in late July and will be done this weekend. It took a little bit longer due to $$ and shipping time. But if you have the time and patience and room/tools, it can be done rather quickly if you have all the new stuff on hand. PM me if you really want to get into the nitty gritty details.
Since this thread seems to be going in various topics, i decided to keep it moving and not start a new thread.

Not a bad price considering it looks in great condition and low miles...plus it has a few things done to it. But still high considering I paid $3350 for mine, and it's a low number.
I did a full 3L in mine, and it was pretty cut and dry...nothing extremely hard about it. I love the look on people's faces when I pop the hood. With the 3L intake, it looks much bigger compared to the stock 2.5. The last mod I did to mine was yellow fogs.

Is that dealership one RT 13 on the way to Dover? If so that car has been there for AWHILE!
How would you know, you're never here....unless you are and don't let me know about....are you?!?!
It's on rt. 13 in dover. But just past the Dover Wal-mart. it's a small seller thing. He's got three cars and this was one. I'm seriously looking into it. my excuse: "my sister needs a car for when she drives" :laugh:
