Absolutely jack squat. There's no such thing as a Daytona Thunderbird. All he did was stick a Motorsports bodykit onto a plain V6 car. Somebody might buy it for the kit, but other then the wing, I think it's hideous.

Eric,
I've got a shot at just the nose piece and side skirts of that kit for $100. Think anybody would buy re-pops?

The only part of the kit that i am not particularly fond of is the Grill. I would love to have a kit like that for my 88.

Well...it seems to be a polarizing grille, judging by the comments...but I think it's an important enough part of aero-'Bird history to recreate if you have the means to do so. I'd say go for it. Even at $100 you're not out much anyway.

Depending on the price, i would probably buy one. Just becasue I have never seen one... I have not decided if I like it or not, or even if it would ever end up on the 83 if I even did get my hands on. Interesting piece...

im sick and tired of hearing that thing called a nascar body kit or a daytona body kit.  yes its a body kit... but i just watched a 1986 nascar race on espn classics and that thing looks NOTHING like them.  thats just a alright looking kit... not my taste, and i dont think anyone here would put it on thier cars either....

Personally, I think it looks like the F in Fila. That is what I first though When I saw it.

I'm game for side skirts if they will fit an 88 :D

If I still had my '86 I'd buy one.
