It indeed is a mustang, with at least a stock body, or body appearance, maybe hes got a $50,000 gold plated TKO 6-speed tranny and a complete adjustable 4-link rear end....

Fred, it is indeed a 5L...87 from the factory were Injected, but if u look closely at the pic, u can see what is a 4Bbl holley OR demon carbeurator with no air cleaner on it....so it was converted, maybe even a "built" 351W swapped in there....who knows? but there definently isnt $75,000 into that car, if there was it wuld be one of the most talked about and fastest Fox Body's out there.....

Anyways....wherever that is, the community is :supergay:

wow the ing pigs of today are sad. I was gona be one but from what ive been seein lately, its just pathetic... and this little newpaper article just further proves that point.

Heh I guess everyone slacks in their jobs, we are just seein cops do it more now. they wonder why ppl have no respect for them, i think they are pissin more ppl off now then they are helping.

ill stop now before i bitch a lot about this hahaha

Dimitri is an unknown quantity at this point
Maybe they should make a law that makes everyday citizens repo police officers cars, and make them walk their overweight lazy asses down to the next donut shop for excercise.

Just another dumb law that perpetuates society into a "Police State".

i drive a 88 5.0 LX and i just put in $9000 into the internals so it still looks bone stock well after we did some disgusing of the intake and headers and other small stuff. But i can tell you right now 75k i dont care how hard to try u cannot hide that much money goin into ur motor alone. And even still the most ive ever heard of being spent on one piece of a 5L was a 12k tranny in an 8 sec n/a 351 so u do the math 12-75=$63,000 to put into ur motor now thats a lil far fetched for me. Oh and by the way what happens when the guy loses his car they put it into a police auction and some dad buys it for his 16 year old kid that ends up killing himself with it.

^Even $9k into a SBF 302 is far fetched for internals...i mean, WTF r they made of?? a complete 4340 stroker rotating assembly COMPLETE with balancing doesnt even cost that much with 4340 H beam rods....i mean, yea, u can put a lot more than that into a 5L motor but on just internals? u must have sum crazy adjustable pushrods, crazy roller-rockers, a titanium cam and lifter set...only way i can see such a high price tag is if u have a very crazy set of heads....like sum AFR 200cc aluminum heads or sumthing....

^So i was right, u dont have $9k into the internals...

i can def. see $9k for SFC, valve body on an AOD (i dont know why that would be expensive, cuz really ur just putting a shift kit in the car, and thats sub $100 for a C4 or even say a C6) and exhasut can get pricey sumtimes, and tires for sure....

sounds like it would be a strong running 5.0...
