Parting out 87' XR7 (86' parts also) Cincinnati, Oho area

I've recently purchased an 87' Cougar XR7 parts car for my 86'. When I get back in town tommorrow, I will post the site so anyone can view the car, besides photo's I will be taking this week. Just wanted to give out a little info ahead of time.
We will be removing the trannsmission  and suspension components memorial weekend.
Other 87' parts I know I will be keeping are: Outside mirror motors, rear defroster switch, and a few other items as I figure this out as I go.
87' Car info: XR7, V-8, moonroof, black leather intirior, body is in very good condition, since a previous owner had started body work, but never painted it. These will definitely be available.
Skirt is no longer on the car (Sold), as well as the digi dash(sold)

Link is from the guy I purchased the car from

86' Cougar parts that I will also have for sale are: 7.5 posi rear w/4:10 gear.
Rims and tires may be for sale if offer is right (I really like em' and am not in a hurry to see them go). Custom 4 bolt 15" with 275 50's and 215 60's in front. Front tires have maybe a couple hundred miles on them, and 50's in back have plenty of tread left, since they were always in back, and never did any real tire peeling since present tranny was never running well in the first place.

I hope to sell what I have available so I don't have to store the bigger stuff. I HAVE NOT DECIDED ON WEATHER I WILL SELL THE TC HOOD, BUT WILL MOST LIKELY KEEP IT

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Wasn't really expecting someone to be interested in those, and i still haven't decided if I will sell them, since I may use them for a future Cat. If you want pics of the wheels when I bought them, you can see them here.

Still in great shape, just need cleaned up a bit.
Just realized you may be talking of the 87'. OOPS. See original post for pic link. They are nothing special on the 87'

Haystack:
Pictures are on the link. Take a look before I throw out a price. Shipping would have to be a killer for you though.

5.8fastcat: E-mail comming. Just flew in tonight. Check out the pics from the link. FYI: From what ray told me (1FSTCAT's close freind, and freind of mine) the V-8 is a slowly dying stock motor. Needs a starter, but I trust his opinion on the car

What kind of exhaust setup does it have?

Dual exhaust, but haven't looked to see it's condition or how true it is or if comes together somewhere. Give me time to get down to it again, maybe a week, since it is sitting 25 minnutes out of my way. When Ray (previous owner) drove it down, I think i remember talking about it being a tad bit on the loud side, so it may be a nice set up. If that's the case, and never thought about it until now, I might end up ussing it. I'll try to let you know in a week, since ray is out of town this week. He has the car behind a gate at his job.

Great, thanks for the reply. I'm in no rush, so anytime you get around to it would be great. I'm aiming for a new exhaust system by Cat Jam '07, so there's still a while to go.
