I had her up on the classifieds for a while only because it broke my heart to see her sit in the snow all winter. But i realized it will break my heart even more to see it go, so I took her back down. shes staying for a long time. I also took a pic of her a few days ago, ill get it off my phone now.

Never got any pics, but fired her up and drove her in the garage. the noise sounds like a rattling every now and then coming from the drivers side top pan. maybe a pushrod bent or a valve spring or rocker arm or something? either way, the engine is almost out, only thing left is motor moutns. driveshaft, exhaust, wiring, everythign else is unhooked. tomorrow evening it will be out.

Man that is one gorgeous engine. My next project is deffinately a fox-body, not sure if it'll be a mustang or a 4door cougar for a sleeper. I have my eye on a 1993 gt right now, or a 93 convertible 4cyl for college, or an 82 cougar 4 door. I'm thinking about the cougar right now since its a pretty rare car and then getting a gt hatch later, i'm thinking all white like shane did to his on here.

so what was done to the motor, basic rebuild or a performance build?
