Since you're illegal anyway, maybe use it to distribute some illegal aliens around the countryside. Might even get the gov to pay you to do it!

Ah man it has a 302ci in it but prior to any type of FI so it's easy to work on and hop up.

It's got the terrible 'VV' carb? setup. But the 302 is reliable. And a full cloth top unlike my old 85 with the half thick padded top so if you have to replace it wouldn't cost $1500+ - that's why I got rid of it.

There's a guy out there with an 80s TC and a 460 but it took heavy modification and a hood scoop (not nec a bad thing ).

I drove a 77 TC with the wheezy underpowered 400 from Buffalo to Cleveland and got - 10 mpg!

Station wagons are becoming 'cool'. I've got to tell my dad - he was ahead of the curve

LOL the first time a manufacturer turned a good engine into junk.

The only thing good out of that engine is the crank to stroke a 351 Windsor
