Just bought on Monday from Ford dealership and now have to get used to rear wheel drive again. Has 63,000 miles and looks to have aftermarket intake, missing the appearance covers for engine, has Mercedes rims, and noticed a wetness from where the trans and motor mates up.

 

Welcome aboard ! That wetness is most likely the leaky transmission wiring connector, cheap to fix if you DIY.

Here's one for $5 plus $3 or so shipping :

thanks for the tip, just had foot surgery but looking forward to getting behind the wheel and under the car. Hopefully less of the under and more of the behind. :0)
