Well if I didn't buy mine from a guy that owns a Mustang and likes to have fun ford weekends it would be running. Now that the wiring is cut off and motor apart, I am just going replace the 2.8 700r4 and 9 bolt with a carbed v8 th350 and 10 bolt.

My baby is daily driven. So, yes, it runs. ( )Has been through snow storms, ice storms, thunder storms. Might have to take it though the winter again this year if the new trucks rear is deemed bad.
