buttstuffog cluster, floor shift, keyless, and moonroof....yet not a turbo coupe.  Nice find.  I might be interested in the blue sunvisors and rear deck carpet/package tray.

PS: what's that blue emblem in the first pic?

swap it out with a mostly stock blue interior, and paint bomb the outside. It looks dirty, but it realy dosen't look beat. I like 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.

So I investigated on it some more...the underside and the subframes are rather clean, surprisingly. So it looks as if I'm going to be gutting the white one. I'm swapping all the interior from it into the Sport, so the few good blue pieces will be up for grabs. Havi, I'll take pics of the parts you asked about and email you with them tomorrow.
DVP, pm me with what you may be interested in, and I'll get back to you.

The seats, dash, and carpet and headliner are all cracked, ripped, nasty and grungy, or sagging.
My thought on the headliner is to take my good red one, cut a hole to match the moonroof, and dye it black and use it, or else fix the saggy stuff.

Keyless works, but the doors are junk...what kind of a job would it be to cut a hole for it in a different door?

I'm waiting for a halfway warm day so I can go gut the interior on the Sport and check the inside floorpans for any rust, and get it ready for a clutch pedal and the manual heater box.
It has some rust and dings on the wheelwell lips, but other than that, it's mostly just ugly faded paint.
Nothing some sandpaper, primer and a few hours on a decent warm day won't improve :hick:


I have an extra red headliner if things dont go right with the first one. I honestly dont know what I need as of now but Im sure something will come up.

Also how are the rockers? I would assume the 'roof drains run to the rockers like most cars but I am not sure on that.
