I've come to point in my life where my priorities are changing, and as much as I don't want to, I'm thinking of selling my '94 :(
I've not decided for sure I'm going to sell, as I'd hate to see my baby go, but am debating it at this point, so am open to serious offers only please.

I'm not quite sure what to ask for it yet.
I'll get some pics up asap, and will add anything I forgot...
 
I had some pics from last fall and when I brought it out this spring, but I can't find my password/info for my hosting. I'll get it figured out :)

I know I'll want it back, even more now that I had the alignment done today and changed the oil and gave 'er a coat of lov... err... wax ;)
I'm just seeing what kind of offers I can get right now and if a good one comes along, well... who knows... :cool: I'm in no hurry to sell it or anything, and will continue to tinker with it if I have the energy and money till it's gone.
 
I can't edit the op, so I'll add that it also has:
- Fresh alignment at Ford dealer last week
- New Ford battery and Alternator
- Mirrored inner signal bulbs in HID housings for clear look up front

Some pics for now (click image for bigger ones, sorry for the quality they were done with my cellphone):

Last fall before I put the Cobra brakes on:


Next bunch are taken at work a few weeks ago:








Control Freak IRS cover/girdle:


Cobra brakes/Powerslots




Original NEW Ford HID housings etc:
 
Nice ... but those Wheel are too much ... but that's my personal opinion... Don't like anything more than 18s ....

The biggest problem will be getting out of it what you put into it.

I hope you are not in any hurry to sell it and want to wait for your price. That way you'll have it when you want it back.
 
Another addition to stuff that goes with it:
- An extra grill in real nice shape
- '93-94 Ford manual on CD (I can include other years too if wanted)
- original driveshaft, some of the other original parts I took off if wanted too

I still have it. I think I'm looking for around the ~6.7k mark for it or offers. Still not too sure on that. I'm in no rush to sell it, just pondering it, and if I get a decent offer, well, we will see what happens... ;)
The car gets a lot of attention around here, there's always someone asking me about it most places I go. I had some guy taking a few pics of it the other day in the coffee shop parking lot. A couple nights ago two guys in a new M6 were asking about it as I drooled over their car, lol... I know I'll miss that part of it if I do ever sell it. :D
All the common and expensive parts that go on these cars is done as you can see from the op & the other posts I made, and I made sure to use genuine Ford stuff almost everywhere...
I'd trade it for a good Jeep as I've always wanted one of those too :)
 
Anyone want this for $6200 before I make it my daily driver and buy winter rims for it! :eek:
Theres a blister in the paint in front of the drivers side wheel I'm going to get fixed too before I sell it or my it my DD... I figured out the alternator problem and it's good now too (just needed another new alt., figures eh?) :)
I'd like to get the money for a down payment on a SRT-8 I was looking at this week (no, not the one in the other section of this forum! lol...)
 
man thats one sweet ride after all that work and your thinking about selling it no way, my car is 1/4th of that one, No way i will sell mine on less i was up grading to sometime better park it out of site to see how you will react ill bet you won`t last a month lol......
 
I've driven it 7000kms since I got it 4 years ago. It's sat wayyy more than I've used it... I don't think it will make a good DD in the snow/winter with 4.30's ;)
 
$5000 without the HIDS or corner fix... I could really use the money for a deposit on something else before the winter hits. I'm not in the best shape right now to be fixing this up any longer...
 
beautiful car, and I also agree with what is said above..

"I dont like the wheels".

You should get a good clean set of 10 spokes and put them on the car and "OFF" those wheels to someone who wants them.

no offence intended with this following statement.
those wheels have "gansta" written all over them and I dont know "too many" mark 8 owners that find them attractive.

If it had a good clean set of 10 spokes on it, it probably would have already sold... IMHO

Short version... Sell the wheels, drop the price and wave bye to that car.. it will sell.
 
lol! Personally i like the wheels, they arent very gaudy to me at least, they are 5 spoke, and the desighn ofem kinda grings the car up a few years. Yeah i want them, and would like to see them on a gen 2 2
 
I've never gotten a bad complaint yet about the rims (well, other than now XLR ;) ) I was trying to keep it a cleaner looking rim which they are compared to most, esp this size. I really wanted to get a set of Niche Rhines or another set I can't remember the name of offhand, but couldn't find any for sale as they aren't made anymore.
I really like the stock ten spokes too, but they won't fit with the Cobra brake upgrade.
 
Well the car is about to become my daily driver :)
I ordered winter rims and tires for it, and I'm in the process of swapping the gears back to stock. :( I've got it partially undercoated (it's hard for me to do right now still.)
Guess we'll see how fun these cars are in the winter, I hope it stays reliable...

The car is still unofficially for sale for the right price... ;)
