I cant remember if i posted on here before. well if this is my first
HI EVERYONE!
lol, well I've been searching junkyards for doors without terminal cancer and haven't had any luck. i guess Ohio's snow and salt eats away any t bird/ cougar that crosses with it. I haven't had a chance to look at Midwest fender here in Ohio to see if they can make a new door (if they're even open)
i heard they had a nasty fire a few years back.
The best doors i find either have the wrong lip at the door protector, or they don't have the key less touch pad. Maybe someone knows a good door/ fender place to get a shiny new door? (well, doorS and a trunk lid? lol)
thanks

Okay, I have 15 posts on this forum, man oh man does my memory suck for being 17 lol
Welcome! A few of us are just 15 minutes away. We'll have to get together sometime.
Anyway, I'm sick of pick'n'pull too. They never have any foxes anymore.
I know Makees in nelsonville has some cars. You might give them a call. 740-753-1100
They know what they have in stock. And if you want to get together and go to that yard let me know. I know a few buddys that would be interested.
You can thank high s prices for that. S metal is at record high prices so all the yards are crushing everything they can. Older metal such as our cars doesn't stand a chance.
That realy sucks. I need to fence up and start a Fox Cougar/T-bird yard.
Welcome to the land of salt,i've dealt with this for years living in ontario.
It's been at least 2-3 years since i've seen a fox anything in the wreckers around here.
Its the same here. 90s cars are getting hard to find. I drive past 3 JYs every day. all they do is s everything. and what they don't is a big rusted mess.
My son called around for anything cougar or T-bird related and all he found was a shell of a 70s cougar
I know where there are about 20 rust free doors.R&D Salvage in Durant Oklahoma.There's about 15 or 20 Fox Cats and Birds there.
Im going to be looking for a pass. side door.
I wonder how much shipping would be?
I have one that i could weigh
Oklahoma is a tab bit far for me lol.
I can't believe that I finally found a door with no rust after looking for 6 years, it just takes time and once I counted 13 t-birds and now he has 2 but one of the ones had no rust. I think the other has very small spot and the inside is clean but FL is pretty far
I guess if I don't find a door by spring I'll just cut the bottom skin off and bend up a new one. It may be my only choice. even if I found one in ohio the gas to get it would cost me $150 plus the cost of the door.
Where you at in Reynoldsburg? I live in Blacklick.
I'm glad I live in Oklahoma.Rust is a non-issue.
There are alot of excellent quality (rust free doors)...here in San Antonio. Let me know how desperate you get.

Fox cars don't last long in yards here anymore....Usually a week at most.....I call around about once a month or so. The pickins have been slim as of late...
