It does seem cheap for what it appears to be. It could be junk in person, but with all of the things swapped over, I would doubt it. It looks pretty nice in the pics. If I had it, I'd rock it!

I agree.
That conversion looks great in the pics. Usually hack jobs will be missing alot of the donor car stuff and will be jury rigged with whatever. Doesn't seem to be the case here.
 Some 87-88 snowflake wheels would top it off !

I am still puzzled why it so low on price. Could the seller not know how much work was involved to convert it?

Yes I realize that ;)

That is why I said it had a "TC-ish hood" not "it has a TC hood" :toilet:


I think he was responding to my question of whether or not the Pre '84 Stang hoods were compatible w/ Tbirds and Vice-Versa.

Thanks for all the Clarification!

, that looks a little too good.
almost like the factory shouldve done that.
i agree with the statement about the 87+ mustang interior, wouldve rather had the tbirds.
