Title: 1979 Tbird part out
Post by: jangus on June 12, 2010, 06:36:56 PM
Friend of mine is parting a 1979 Tbird. Car won't be around for long, so if you need something, post or PM me ASAP. I'll go look at condition and pull when I've got some responses. Car is supposed to be complete (right now), and reasonably clean.

Is it a Heritage, Town Landau or a base T-Bird?

Is the engine still in it?  I'm looking for empty engine bay pics and measurements between motor mounts.

I'll get your answers in the morning. It does still have the engine in it though.

Talked to my s guy, and it doesn't have the cool turbines. Did they come on any other cars? He has a stock of wheels. I'm stopping by tommorow to have a look for myself.

some crown vics/marquis had those turbines, I *think*.

Graham will know for sure..I think I read something he posted in another thread about them being the same...perhaps i'm wrong though.

crown vics and marquis had similar wheels but they are not the ones I am after.  these came on thunderbird and cougar only...

I am looking for the passsenger-side splash guard (plastic) which is located just behind the front wheel. Three bolt holes. Just finished a 1978 Diamond Jubilee Edition in polar white/blue. Tim, St. Petersburg, FL

If it has a 351M or 400 engine in it, I'd like a picture of the exhaust manifolds, and maybe even buy them if they're not too bad.
