ExIntegra Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 There's a 99 coupe on ebay that's already at $4,500. It's a theft recovery with front end damage, ripped up dash, a little rear end damage, and a con rod dangling from a hole in the bottom of the oil pan! A clear photo of the oil pan with dangling con rod is on the ebay page. Finding it must have been a surprise for the poor soul who bought the car. The radio and radiator are both missing. The car is described as - You are looking at a 1999 Ford Mustang Cobra with 5 speed trans. This car was purchased as a theft recovery. I purchased this car with no keys, I had keys made and programmed at Ford. I then discovered that the engine was knocking due to one of the pistons pushed through the oil pan. This car needs cooling system. The body is in great shape. It still starts and runs. The radio and a few pieces are missing in the interior as shown in the pictures. The miles show 130k on the odometer and the title states 150k. It's Item number: 270137445794: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1999-Ford-M...1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see hints of a possible oil leak, as well.... :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickF1011 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I don't know what you guys are talking about. It looks factory to me...... Well, you know how Ford is introducing the capless fuel filler? This is their take on the plugless oil pan. "still starts and runs." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
