Sold.:depress: But I'll be buying another one in about a year. I love these cars!:D

Not really... When the engine is cold it makes no noise at all. After it warms up the tap is there at idle. Once the engine is tapping you can make it kinda go away when driving by playing with throttle position (like a little more throttle can make it quieter). The tap becomes very noticeable...

Here is an album of pictures. http://imgur.com/a/roOG7 Here is a video of the rod knock. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLxMrEUKeaY&list=UUHbB38aeAepYJALgjyCBGxQ

Location: Midland, TX Why so cheap? It has a salvage title and the engine has a rod knock. Not a bad one and it doesn't even make noise until reaching operating temperature. But it has a rod knock none the less. I had big plans to work on this car but my father has been diagnosed with a...

Thanks, Overlord. That was what I figured. Unfortunately with my fat fingers I'd screw it up and have two dead gauges on my hands. Ha! I'll get over the color difference especially after I swap out the factory radio for something with a navigation type screen. It's gonna end up looking like the...

**OLD THREAD ALERT** I'm looking to replace my rally-pac gauges with the same Ultra Lite IIs you did but I have a question. It looks like they are lighted with a non-serviceable LED as I don't see a spot to remove a bulb on them. Is this correct? I really like the "Ford green" glow but I'd like...

Like others have said before me in this thread: I regret waiting too damn long to buy one. I drooled over these cars when they were released over 10 years ago. Thankfully I've remedied that problem.

Thanks for the welcome, everybody! I'll get right on ordering the gears to fix the pedals.
