Runs, drives, stops, inspected till next June, driven somewhat regularly for almost 4 years excluding winter. Ford 2.3 turbo 5 speed, same engine as SVO mustang.

Runs, drives, stops, inspected till next June, driven somewhat regularly for almost 4 years excluding winter. Ford 2.3 turbo 5 speed, same engine as SVO mustang.
The body is presentable, but it was repainted, clear is flaking in a few areas, little areas of stripped paint and there is a small bondo crack on the passenger fender. Notable areas of rust (pictured) include the rockers, hatch, and a little bubbling on the passenger rear arch.
Recently the car hesitates at 5psi boost but otherwise drives fine. Brakes make some noise, it's an old car. Gauges are intermittent, heater core removed, A/C blows whatever it wants. Hazard switch is broken, but secured in place. Occasionally you need to try a few times for the starter to kick, probably just needs a solenoid, but has never left me stranded. Comes with some spare parts.
Has 3" exhaust with a high flow cat, Cosworth style intercooler, bypass valve, fender mounted intake filter, SVO computer with big VAM, manual boost controller Hyperco springs and mini starter. Replaced the head gasket a couple years ago.
It's a rare car, and it still goes down the road.
No trades, face to face dealing with cash, asking 3500. Will answer questions. Thanks for looking.
