Car also has a mustang Q1A K-member

has not been on the road since 2003 no motor

i almost got the window tint molestedmolestedmolestedmolestedmolestedmolested for in $2 Bills got 65 of them so $130 which may be a few more than i need.

And got a extra TC hood with my 88 T-Bird 2 weeks ago when i bought it.

1987 T-Bird AEROBIRD-GT had many many mods but is now totaled and is the car that made me want to start customizing everything all over again.

Also the embelms are all coming off the car.

And the colors will be 2003 Cobra Blue on top and 2003 cobra sliver on the bottom with blue powder preal mixed into it.

Side trim is coming off then the holes will be welded up.

Chrome door handles will be used off my old T-Bird and Chrome cougar mirrors if i can find a set.

Engine bay color still not sure on.

Also hood pins and take one TC hood scoop off my old car and mold it in on the side to work with the UPR cold air kit.

Last in between the windows will be vinyl wrapped black to clean up the look along with the window tint.

Sounds like you have a real plan there.watch the side trim,though.If you remove the side trim between the wheels,you're fine.if you remove the trim behind the rear wheels,and in front of the front wheels,it leaves the car incomplete because the bumper cover trim (which is molded in the cover) sticks out past the fenders ,which,leaves you with an incomplete,"something's missing" look.By the way,where does someone get 65 $2 bills?

Vinne i know but the truth is i don't want to waste money on side trim or time looking for it I only want to buy enough UPR parts for the shop i got to become a UPR dealer put on that Vortech S-Trim 1 or 2 parts to fix the engine get a shift kit and transmission rebulit buy some paint and some new wheels and window tint last put back my sound system.

Picture of all car without the trim on the sides takes a lot of welding or lots of $$$.

The side trim for the front and rear isn't too hard to find.It'll fill in the "gaps" by not leaving the bumper cover overhang (so to speak).If you're gonna do the job,do it right.

Right to me means fix everything while the car is apart and no rust clean up everything and paint it and drive it down the road or drag strip.
