That's if someone did it lol. The cost of parts is low; its the labor and sometimes the cam phaser doesnt reset and you have to retime it a few times. But at the cost of losing valves and needing a new head if a "good" belt snaps....think its worth the $400-500 to get it done when you only spent 900 on the car. Know what I mean?

Unless there is something that says that belt is new, or a local FORD Dealer can see if their is any history of service on the vin thats showing a service of timing belt....id recommend being safe than sorry.

In 2005 I bought an 2003 SVTF, 6900 mi., CD silver, 5-door for $17,500 from Jenkins Ford in Buckhannon, WV I drove it until it had 70k+ miles then traded it. I had a Steeda Tri-ax and short ram intake on it. Overall a great car. Never had one single engine problem, but the Audiophile stereo was a piece of crap, the seat heaters went out at 10k, and it needed a suspension part at one point. In hindsight I can't complain, as I drove the living bejeezus out of that car and enjoyed every mile of it.

bought mine last july 4th,
154K at the time, now 162K.
3 door,
Black
all options, came stock, now modded out some
$$$$3,400
my first car, not too shabby, it still pulls very strong, haven't had a problem with it.
will be getting new doors, the doors are the only thing rusting on the outer body, underneath has some.
then will be getting it painted and all looking fresh by the end of summer.
may have to do a clutch job in the next year or 2 however

A lot of you guys got great deals! I thought I got a good deal but now I think I might have overpaid by around $1k.

2003 Screaming Yellow EAP
83k
Exterior and interior in Good-Very Good condition. Everything is operational. A few small mods (drop-in filter, exhaust, short shifter, front strut tower brace, tune)
Paid asking price of $5950

Needed rear brakes (did rotors+pads for all 4 corners for $150), a number of rock chips touched up (getting a Dr Color Chip kit for $40), horrid aftermarket tail lights replaced (got used stock ones for $65), oil change and new MTX fluid (~$60), welded in a glasspack to quiet the LOUD exhaust ($45), and still needs a new timing belt (will run about $500 for TB+WP+fluids).
