all in all i had about 4 hours into the heater core today, but i had some other wiring issues to address. plus i made my shiftball fit today and i messed up my instrument panel just now taking glass cleaner to it. :mad:  live n learn i guess.

as for the hood, that one was so rotted out its laying in the s pile behind my house, gonna get a 87-88 tc hood for it.

heres my shiftball i made work today, it has some history to me, as it was out of my dads old dwarf car we used to race up in canada, we picked the number 9 because our car was #9 and it was yellow and white.
 that car meant alot to me, and made me were i am i nthe hooters pro cup series, so i figured id put it to good use in the turbo coupe, plus it looks badass behind my gauges.

well i got her on the road about a month and a half ago, got about 1500 miles on her without any major trouble. shes my daily driver and im so glad shes reliable. i had a wire come off the coil do to a bad splice and that killed her for about a half hour but other then that shes been trouble free.

I also bought a new grille. it definatly needed it.  but i still need a hood and right front fender, and a paint job lol. thank god i finally graduated from school. now i can finally start making good money as a technician at the local ford dealership.

heres a pic of it at the last day of school!

I've got a TC hood, a couple small dings on it, $20 if you pick it up in Grand Island, NY
Sorry, don't have a fender for your year car.
