Welcome to the site! I just checked out your cardomain. Car looks good, looks like you could use some gravel in that driveway though. LOL!! Good luck with it. I'm your first post over there.

Go down to the classifieds and post what you're looking for AFTER you look on the "for sale" thread and see if you can find what you need there.There's a lot of stuff there.

On another....Welcome to the forum.

Thanks man, I'm glad you like it. I've had it since 1990 and I've done a little each year. You just have to be patient and it'll come together. Like Vinnie there's alot of paerts to be found on here. I have quite a bit to sell myself, I just haven't listed it here yet but I do watch the wanted thread. Also check out craigslist, I sell a good bit on there and also the local sale papers.

what good junkyards are there down in p.a. ? ive been to harrys u pull it. im trying to find one with more than a single token thunderbird like garys u pull it in ny. seems like these cars are becoming alot more rare. id rather have the bird over the mustang, at my age 45, you dont have to stop, drop, and roll out of the thing like a stang. besides dang walker just keeps getting trapped under the car!! thanks, dwight

We had a good one here before they where bought out by a co. that's more into s than selling parts. They did have a whole row of fox birds and cougars but they're all crushed now. I keep checking every now and then but nothing. Although the last time I was there they where bringing in the crc cars and there was a 97 bird in very nice shape brought in. If I still had my 95 I would have had a field day. There was also one about 10 minutes from here but it closed. So like you said they're becomming a little more rare. Better off finding one cheap enough and using it for parts.

Did you get the rear corner windows you needed? I have some but they're for a tc so they don't have the chrome trim.
