My 1987 Chevrolet Caprice Classic had a 4.3 V-6 with that "throttle body: injection. Looked like the shell of a carbuerator with an injector mechanism in the center.

The Crossfire runs okay once you learn how to set it up but it's tricky to get right. If you're just a "fiddler", you're pretty much sunk.

Seats don't look bad at all. But I'm definitely put off by the rest of the .... ummm... whatever the hell they are.- fintail (May 03, 2012 12:09 pm)

The hood alignment, rattle canned wheels, and front and rear "spoilers" are a visual treat. I can picture the driver now.

"This car is considered to be a parts car that runs and drives." At least they are honest. I am amazed at how those seats look, they have to be worth something to someone.

Both the price and just the thought of spending $100k on a Mustang restoration. The nice price/crack pipe listing on another site today is an old, rough Aston Martin. THAT'S a car to spend $100k on. I know, it's not that hard to spend, but to expect to recover it when they sell a Mustang is, to me, nuts.

I think even at their peak, the nicest 4-speed v8 '65 verts were fetching like $35k. So, yeah, restoring one yourself and trying to sell it is financial suicide.
