Well, last year I got an 86 Ranger from a mechanic shop for $350. shop couldn't/wouldn't get it running before I got her. It took us 24 hrs...... Did run great, but she ran. Ripped out the tired V6 and A4LD and sold it. Long plan is to do a built 351w. No rush on that. However, I wanted to get the truck moving on it's own, so my stepdad came across a 94 Mustang GT convertible for cheapish. I'll sell the roller to recoup some of that. Started converting the H.O. to carb this weekend. This should be fun... more to follow.

Front two intake manifold bolts broke during removal.... #ThanksFord. Five hours later and a slew of drill bits, threads were saved. Sat the carb on the intake manifold just to make me feel a little better until those two bolts came out.
