Post by: racerc2000 on October 08, 2008, 10:19:31 AM
can anyone confirm the maker of this bodykit/grill or is it custom modded?

GST or GTS either way they are no longer in business. The side skirts on my car were originally like those but I changed mine for the 86 body style and side exhaust

I would bet that the wheels he has on there don't have enough backspacing to keep them from sticking out beyond the stock fender.

I actually like the grille.I may grab that center part from a mid 90's Bird and try that out.That's really cool.

Edit.Maybe I won't try it,it appears that the mid '90's T-Bird has the grill molded into the plastic bumper cover.Hmmmmmmm,I'll have to do some thinking.

thats easy to make that grill.....  it is just a TC front header panel that has been cut open and molded smooth with a bird emblem mounted in the center....

I seen that very car up on ebay a few years ago.
The starting bid was 10 000 with the reserve not met.
He didn't get 1 bid.
Nice car though.
