Fox T-Bird/Cougar Forums

I called the yard,and they said they had two '87/'88 Turbo Coupes,and a bunch of late '80's Birds.I'm going to check them out after lunch.he said he had one TC rear he'd let me have for $150.00.I may buy it.I don't know what the cars have to offer,but he said the TC's were in running condition,but one of them he wants the drivetrain from to install in a Stang.It's worth a look.I'll be leaving around noon I guess.

IF they have any 80-82's, see if they have any good control stalks (wipers/turns).  The chrome on mine is bad/flaking off.  The wipers have the adjustable intermittent feature.
Also, there are a couple buttons on the center console for the interior lights.  I could use a couple of them.  One of the attaching tabs is broken off one of mine, and thus the button does not stay put.

POLEEZE :hick:

Grey cloth center armrest for consolette please!  The side clips too:hick:

BTW, when these cars die do they all go to Oklahoma?  You always seem to find tons of Junkyard cars.

I'll check for those parts.I'll also take the camara and grab a couple of shots.As far as them coming here to die.....possibly.Like the old elephant grave yard I think.I've been lucky.The guy said he'd rather me bring my tools and pull parts myself so I don't interfere with their work.Not a problem !!! I may end up being disappointed.I hope not.I'm kind of cheap,and don't like spending a forune for somple parts.I'd like to find some hard to find bits and pieces.I'll have an update later this afternoon.Hopefully by 3:00 or so.I'm leaving at noon.

Oh,you guys have til 12:00 to tell me what to look for if you're needing anything.After that,you're out of luck.I'm hoping to get some stuff I need,and  some cool stuff to make my money back to support the Sport.

How much to ship one of the Turbo Coupes to Chicago? I'll take one :hick:

Crown Vic stuff Vinnie ;)

Where is this junk yard and are there any Mark VIIs in there?

O.K.,I'm back.I'm a little happy,and also disappointed at the same time.I did get the 3.55 rear from a TC.It was $120.00.He also threw in the rear springs and fog lights with brackets.The lights are in great shape.Bad side,there were only two T-Birds (fox) there.Both were TC's.One auto,one 5 speed.Both white.One with red interior (trashed),one with blue.Not bad actually.It took the guys FOREVER to drag the Bird out so i could get the rear.It was missing the brakes.Oh well,I'm using my drum brakes anyway.The only other birds there were late 60's.He did have a BUNCH of Rancheros,one gold Mark VII (no engine or computer),but it did have those deep mesh wheels.Sharp !!.There was a '68 El-Camino,2 javelins,no Crown Vics with the parts Mike,sorry.No early '80's Birds either.There is one in the next yard that I'm going to Chuck.Anyway,at least i got the rear.

By the way,the other car has a 3.73 rear.The yard is halfway between Davis and Sulpher Oklahoma.I don't know what highway that is.If you are ever around,I'll try to hook you up.There's also a TC or two In Durant Oklahoma.he says he'll sell the rear for $200.00 if you pull it yourself (they'll raise the car for you).

Thanks, if I'm over there for anything I'll make a point to stop by there.

FYI, there's an 80-82 Thunderbird that's at R&S in Moffett, OK. IIRC it was a 302 car, it at least had a 255. There's also a 83-84 TC in there too. Both of those cars were pretty complete last time I was there which was December.

Where is that?Over near the Eastern Oklahoma border?

Vinnie, if possible, could you find out what year the Mark VII was? Im looking for some parts from a 91-92.

if ya ever go back or to any jys see if there are any sc's and if so grab me the harmonic ballencer bolt. since mine broke when i tryed removing the ballencer to repair it.

I believe there was a Super Coupe.The Mark was a '91 or '92.The body was great.Like I said,it even had the deep mesh wheels (polished lip,gun metal kind of colored middle).They even had the center caps on them.The interior wasn't tru;y mint,but it had a sunroof,and was missing mostly the computer and drivetrain.

Hey I'll part out my tc rear if you want. I'll sell you everything off of it let me what you want.

I thought about going all disc,but I don't have the funds.I'd need the rotors,calipers,brake cables,one dust shield,and hardware.If you still have those parts when I finish the other big tasks I am trying to finish,I'd like to buy it all.Like I said,after getting the heads,tranny,and other pieces and gaskets (still need a lot),funds are really small.
