mcb82gt,
If he says it's factory, maybe it is.  But it just doesn't quite look like something Ford would have built.  Are those body-kit parts available from anyone else?  The badging on the trunklid looks a little hokey!  I'm betting an individual built that car and convinced this guy it was factory.  Any other thoughts?

Dealer package or done by someone like ASC. Most definitively not a factory build.


Nice and trashy though  :mullet: .

Lose the ugly decals on the back and rear glass, throw some modern wheels on there.....might be decent.

Didn't see the engine, but it's probably the 150 horse (on a good day) version of the 5.SLOW.

Needs a Coyote to back up that paint..lol
