83 Cougar with a throttle body injected 302 and AOD trans. The motor and trans are good, but it does not run. I bought it thinking it would be just a tune up to get it on the road, but i kinda got screwed over on it. Theres an electrical drain, and while the battery is charged, it wont idle. I have: replaced the valve seals, oil and filter, fuel filter, air filter, plugs and wires. I have a brake booster and master cylinder for it but I could not get the old booster off and i just dont have the time or money to keep working on it. Also have a new set of injectors. Im almost certain the idle issue is a clogged cat, and i know the car will start and run for a little while at least. Its in good shape, no rust and the interior is good. Im working on getting a vin check done on it so i can get the title back from the tag agency.

You don't see many of those around any more. GLWS.

Well they are pretty ugly, but a fox body is a fox body!

You don’t see these around anymore because they were junk and unreliable.

I mean its just a T Bird with a 302 and an AOD. Pretty much the same as anything Ford put out then.
