I know I've seen someone do a caddy 500 swap in a bird. But I can't find the site. ANyone know of a site that talks about 500 swap? My buddies got a 500 cad out of a eldorado fwd. What trans will bolt on for a rwd application? I might try and see if I can get it from him.
i'm no photoshop guru so its kinda crude. I pictured it looking cooler. maybe I'll just keep it low in the front like it currently is. leave well enough alone.
I'm picking the car up tomorrow. For now I'll run a 5.0 and c4 and some nitrous when I some extra money. But once I get my other project done I think I'll make it a gasser. Might be awhile since my other project, 69 satellite, still needs the qtrs put on and then paint. But once thats done the tc is going to be a gasser. I need to start taking some measurements so I can find the right axle for the front.
Just wondering if I'm the only one that thinks it be cool to make a 86tc into a gasser. For those who are not familiar witha gasser I'll show you a mopar one. I'm tempted to do it on the 86 I just picked up. Its a stripped car for drag racing any ways so why not.
I drive a 93 mustang coupe. But I use to have a 87 tc and I really don't want to see another tc become s. Because if I don't take it he's going to take the rearend and s it. He's tired of it taking up space and he already has a 88 tc. I would need to make around $1500 to be worth it. Do you think I could get that. And do you think it would bring more money in if it had a normal interior or if it more race oriented with a kirkey aluminum seat and fabbed up dash?
I can get a 86 tc for free. It was going to be a race car so alot of the interior was gutted. What kind of money would a 86 bring with a carbed 5.0 with trw flattop forged pistons, x cam, ported e7s, and a c4 with shift kit and a cheetah shifter. its got a 7.5 rearend with 3.4x lsd. I might put a kirkey race seat in it. But I'm not going to build it if I can make money on it. The body is straight, and I think the paint is good too. I going to take a look at it this week. Its one of my friends that he wants to get rid of. What do you guys think I could get out of it if I sold it when its done. I'll post pics of it when I get a chance to get over there.
