if it was mine, it would be sold much lower, my uncle has had a rough life, much rougher than a lot of other people, and he needs every dollar.
Sorry guys =/

 

First of all its not an 86(carbed) its 87 as stated above.
Are you kidding trying to sell us on that milage? All that stuff is ragged.
104,000=yes. ITS A 302, yes a good motor but never rare.

 

86 was the first year for SFI in mustangs. 85 was the last year for carbs.

86 did not gett he H.O. intake plate.

the fuel rails are not 86 and the spark plug wires clearly say "1987"

And yes, that looks like 104k miles to me as well.

 

Tell your uncle to read this thread and you surf the classifieds on different Mustang sites with him so he realizes what he's missing out on. Let him know that for the price he's asking anyone could get a built performance shortblock/longblock for that money. No sarcasm there. My Dad is still on the old school trip. He's the type that'll pay $100 for dinner and still only want to tip 2 or 3 bucks.

 

Being low on funds is understandable.....being broke because your waiting on a sucker.... no pitty

Yeah, I got the fact that it's an 87. The millage is what what it says on the speedo, He hooked it up and got the millage off of it. I was implying that, because it had that low of miles, is what made it rare.




Yeah, I'll have to do that. I didn't know what to list it for because i've never sold an engine. So when i asked him he told me what the autozone price was for just the block, and i assumed i'd go from there and see how it went. $4,000 seemed a bit steep to me considering i paid $3,700 for my entire car... But I said to myself, "hell i'll put it up and see what happens"
So now that I have listed it on 4 sites, this is the only one getting any responces. I expect people to be understanding but what I'm seeing is the opposite.


I wasn't implying he was trying to get a sucker. I was just saying hes the kind of guy has seen it all and done it all, he's lived in the streets of NY for years without anything but a big ass knife. His only daughter has called the cops numrous times claiming that he tried to rape her, when I know he would never do such a thing. She also got a few friends together when he was at work once, and turned his house upside down, stealing all of his valuables. He broke his back in a motorcycle accident and shouldn't even be alive. So hes the kind of person that puts a price on something and says... "If they won't give me at least that, then I'll just keep it to myself and use it for something"


Now that I'm getting a better understanding on the average prices I'll definitely have to talk to him and see what he wants to do.

 

The speedo doesnt show +100,000. Are you that stupid or just think everyone else is with those ragged parts?

 

I'm glad you can read, I said in the first or second post that i don't really know anything about engines and it never occurred to me that it didn't go past 100k. So thanks for insulting me.

I'm not trying to fool anyone here, I'm just putting what he told me

 

1986 Plate did say HO and was unique to 1986 and changed in 1987 and was the same until 1993.
