Well.....after a six hour trip, the SVO is home. Here is the run-down. The car is better than I thought. The front bumper cover will need to be replaced and of course it needs paint all the way around. Needs new tires of course. You can smell the old gas and the inspection is from 2001, so I am going to have to give it a little TLC before trying to start it. The intercooler is missing, but I will probably go with a FMIC anyway. The interior looks to be in good shape. It looks like someone tried to take off the door panels and then gave up, so they kind stick out from the door some. The leather seats look almost brand new. No rips or tears and they are clean. He told me he had almost decided to take the seats out and put them in 90 5.0. He also threw in an extra set of T-Tops. There is no documentation for the car, but he said it came from a retired Trooper from Durham. I'll see what I can find out. The guy seemed really genuine and told me that he knew he could have gotten more from parting it out, but thought it would be a shame and wanted to see someone fix it up the way it should be. Of course, he told me he originally bought it to put a 460 it in, but after he learned a little more, he decided not to mess it up.
