Talking $300 got me this





I broke tradition, it doesn't have a 300 in it

1995 302 5 speed 4x4. 157K, slave cyl is out. Runs like a top but the interior needs a major cleaning and something is loose in the front end- not sure what yet.

It will need a set of tires before too long but I should come out under $1K when it's done

FYI, the front end on the '91 wasn't that light while goin down the road. the spot I parked was higher on the right side and the left tire was in a low spot.

Nice score! That interior is really dirty. I just got done cleaning the inside of the 86 which was a landscaping truck...lots and lots of dirt.

Ya. the 4th alum wheel is in the box.
I'm assuming its MAF, as it has quite a bit more giddyup than most 302s I've seen. Has 3.55 gears, no LS.
The clutch cyl is out, but I started in gear and ran it up and down the road a few times.
Yeah, the tires are small- 225/70R15. I want to find a cheap set of 31x10.5 AT or MT tires
