Title: Stupied Tail lights.
Post by: SirChirpAlot on April 22, 2008, 04:01:13 PM
Well i have 85 t bird and some one had bumped and killed one of my tail lights.  This would not bother me as finding parts always works out well for me.

But i miss the looks of my cougar tail lights and i like the TC tail lights much better.  So since i have a TC trunk 2 sets of lights and a plasma cutter i'm thinking of giving my 85 T the TC lights to match the TC hood.  How will a 4 eyes look with TC tails ?

If anyone knows if anyone has done this please let me know.
If not its my idea LOL.

why not just glue something inside the tail lights to do this?

Well were i live the ministry of transportation is dumb but has left gaps for people to play with.  One is kit car other is HotRod.
But both have there limits were last but very unknown is RBT rebuilt titles.

With RBT you can rebuilt a car to some nasty tricks to get around the minstry of transportion.
Now with this said here we go.
To be a RBT car you need to change frame. Have a motor that was not available in said car. Have body mods that can not be bolt on like a hood or wing.  Minitubbing dont count but tail lights that cant be changed back do :)

Now for the good part.  When a RBT is finshed a 85 Tbird turns into a 2008RBT. The motor laws are the best. Emissions for a RBT car go by the year of the MOTOR LOL.  SO take a 85 or say a 99 car do the RBT and drop in a 66 block guess what.  You go by 66 emissions.

Bam street legal race car.
