as for under the hood it is getting there. i bought the car with a very neglected 146,000 mi, for 700 bux. Every time i have something apart on the motor i Clean and paint or polish. here it is after i did the Valve cover gasket. I have since polished the turbo outlet 90 and rebuilt the T3.

I like the looks of the 4-eye Cougar nose on the Tbird. 
That color looks good with the black-outs too.

I like the wheels.  Where did you get them?

very nice.  I have a budy who lives in dayton and he mentioned seeing a light blue/silver turbo coupe right down the street the last time I talked to him.    Wow small world.  I may be in dayton the week sometime.  I'm about two hours away.  If I see it I'll stop.

Also is that an old motorsports front mount intercooler?

Living that close to Youngstown (Yeah I know its like 4.5 hours away) you will have to attend Cat Jam!

Very nice car.  It looks way nicer than the $700 you paid for it.

Call me a purist, but I'd really like to see a Tbird front end on there. :)

I would love to have a Tbird front nose but i can't find one. there are 7-8 cougars and 4-5 87-88TC in the junkyards near me so the closest thing was the Cougar. its grown on me but im still looking for a tbird one before i paint the car
