Thread: 2.3 turbo Mustang

Tweet

Well, my son in law decided that hot rod building wasnt for him, at least not now. Once he sat down and started figuring the time and $$$ it would take to put this together, he decided to sell off the car and the parts. So I just became the owner of a 2.3 Turbo T-bird engine and 5 speed trans. Dont know what I'm going to do with it yet but I'll come up with something. I think it'd make a great roadster engine.

Amazing!! But it's a better wake up call now. You either 'have it' or you don't.

Dang - too bad you weren't closer as that combo would easily fit in the bed of my truck and then I could 'make a home' for it

I kind of saw it coming; Brent's a great guy but he hasnt done a lot of car work other than the basics. He's probably better off starting with a running "fixer-upper" to build some skills. The Mustang he bought was going to need a lot of TLC and $$ to get it roadworthy.

When he said he wanted to sell the drivetrain I knew I wanted it. When my Plymouth's done I'll figure out what to do with it. Lots of ideas!
