I looked at an SVT contour today that was used by a performance shop in the area for testing. It needs a little work. It has two motors and one tranny, the good motor was built by Rausch and the other can be saved with a re-build (Focus swap?

). It's missing both front wheels and spindles and has a little damage to the front interior door panels, other than that it's in great shape. It may be missing the rack and pinion and a few other parts under the front, it was dark and I did not want to climb under there at the time. I can probably get it for under $500.00 and if I throw a grand into it I would have a great 2nd car. For those of you who don't know, I turn wrenches for a living (mostly on heavy tactical trucks), so this would not be too tough. Whaddaya think?

That's a no brainer. If the body is in good shape and you're sure it's structurally sound, scoop that bastard up.

 

[airforcefocus]

Yeah, good shape. It still has the airbags too, if I wanted to I could just sell those and make my money back.

(anyone have a few hundred I could borrow?)

If you can get into an SVT Contour for a grand total of 1500 bucks, I envy you. Go for it.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">The Focus is here to stay, the Contour just seems like a fun playtoy and I can make a few bucks off it in the end.

Dude you need to buy it. I've got a donor car to sqweeze that second motor into. My wife always said she wanted a little more zip for her ZTS.

for $1500 total the SVT would be a fantastic deal. get it.

 

[SuperMatt]

Do it! $500 -- that's a steal. Have it there by Saturday, I wanna see this thing!

 

[BlackFSVT]

Sounds like a good deal.

Hell, you could part the car out for several thousand dollars probably.

It was my home before my SVT and I still go there quite a bit.
