No Title
2000 with tan interior, full oval port 3L swap done in November 2013 and tuned by Adam Marrer of Pops Racing, Rochester NY. I installed a new clutch and slightly used BAT struts/H&R springs at the same time as the motor swap. NEW alternator and battery installed shortly after. A little over 120K on the car, less than 40K on the motor. Everything works except for the key fob, power antenna, and AC. Paint is in good condition, typical scratches you would expect in a car this age. Interior in very good condition. Alpine stereo with bluetooth installed. Short shifter. New aftermarket headlamps with the hightower mod. Updated Focus fuel pump assembly. Newer pads and rotors. About half the tread left on Kumho tires. I had rocker panel rust on the passenger rear where the sunroof drain is. Cleaned up the rust and applied a very good 3 stage rust proofing system before repairing with fiberglass - so visually, all is good - but I wouldn't use that location to jack the car up. I have the weld in steel rocker panel replacements, just haven't bothered installing it. I'll be troubleshooting a few minor issues this weekend - ABS is touchy, suspect dirty sensors or tone rings. Slight vibration in front end - will rotate tires to see if its a wheel balance issue. Tie rod ends, swaybar links, bearings are all good. Looking to get $3,000. In Oneonta NY.

The car runs excellently and was my daily driver up until November, when I switched to an AWD for winter. It is still registered and insured. If you don't find anything closer to you, let me know if you want to trek up here to check it out sometime or if you want more pics of anything. I don't know when I I'll have a free weekend - but might be able to meet you somewhere a little closer if you want to see it - like Roscoe, NY.

2000 SVT Contour
Silver Frost
19x,xxx
Motor has approx 25k miles on it, fully remanufactured by Jasper. Same mileage on clutch.
20k miles on alternator, water pump, starter.
15k approx on brand new shift cables installed by Ford.
E0 dash installed, so no dash warp!
Runs great.
Car doesn't drive, appears to be the differential. Car will move, but will make noise so I had it towed home.
The body is in fair condition, some scratches and a few dents, nothing bad. Rust on the bottom edge of a few doors.
Tear on the side of rear bumper, fixable. Front bumper is beat up, but I have a replacement.
All Jack point covers and mesh are included.
Asking $1500 and will include all of my spare parts (2 front and 1 rear SVT bumpers, 2 SVT side skirts with 2 Jack point covers, pre98 and 98+ cup holders, pre98 console parts, 98+ clocks and sunroof gears).
Located in Wilkes Barre, PA.
