    Yep, And what's with 3CP0 sticking his head up out of the engine. Is that supposed to make us think it has a blower?

    Get rid of the fake blower air cleaner thingy, throw the hood back on it (assuming he has it), and get a back bumper, and it wouldn't be so bad. Not for $3k though.

    According to the ad, it's not even a 400, it's a 351M. Not the usual subject for an engine build. Maybe worth having just for that reason (with a hood and without the bizarre intake, that is).

    Nothing that can't be undone. I'd be interested at a much lower price sans engine/transmission. Have other plans for this mess...
