I had to
Picked up another build, super score but it was a 3.5 hour tow!! 
This 98 is CLEAN 2 owner very well cared for until it swallowed all of its coolant
Looks like a botched engine rebuild/head job only lasted a few years
4.0 had water up to the throttle body! Holy crap that is alot of coolant/water in the engine
Even the air filter was soaked
This engine has been out before, the heads are not stock
Transmission has also been out, trans is good rebuild
Regardless I just happen to have a 5.0 drivetrain sitting around so
Here goes another 302 swap!

Plan is stock low mile 302/4r70w with full tune up, disc brake 8.8 in the rear, 4406e or manual t case, some tasteful updates along the way, and build this 98 up to sell.
On to the pics!!
