[GallopingFord]

On the hunt again. I've googled and found a couple, but not too many. If you have any leads to any it would be appreciated. I'm located in VA, 22312.

Wrecked and rebuildable? For the powertrain?

Yeah, just need the powertrain and all the other electronics for a swap.

Just buy my car and sell the Bullitt

 

[mikeyfitz]

Youre selling the 500!?

 

[AbdullaGT500]

I would for the right price

Haha, I've come to the conclusion that selling the Bullitt won't happen.

i saw a couple engine/ trans pullouts for around 11-13 the other night. prob more than youd be in parting a car yourself though

theres also a 2010 not sure if that would work on erepairables for 21,900. no idea what a "good" price for one is.

Yeah, I saw that one and currently its my top pick, but are there any large differences in the wiring harness in the convertible versus the coupe besides the top?

engine harness should be the same, body harness may be a bit different

 

[GallopingFord]

Still looking. Saw one pop up on Copart today but it looks a little bit sketchy since the front took the entire impact.

I'm pretty sure the wrecked gt500 that in the classfield has the whole powertrain setup from the motor, trans, and harness. I think there asking 13g, but it's a tuff economy and cash is king imo.

I can't seem to find that. Link?

It's the tpsmak thread.

That's the only way I wanted to do it too. With the whole car you get all the little stuff that could nickle and dime you to death. Plus, you get to part out what you don't use and make some of your money back.

Yeah that's kind of how I budgeted it. I hope I can stick it out and follow through; the wait and temptation of a newer car is hard to resist. This should be a great project especially since it will be my first big build.
