RT Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 Probably if you can be bothered with a wreck at your place and pull all the bits off. But yeah it's way cheaper. We're blessed with hundreds of Serrias for all us old Ford owners...unlike in Australia... I bought an entire Serria for $180 and drove it home and scored a mint 5 speed, a mint clutch a mint 205 block, mint seatbelts, heaps of fuses and bulbs, then I sold what was left for $60 and it was towed away by the end of the weekend.
