Ok, guys? shag off and leave the guy alone. This is not corral.net, OK? I'm sure there are many Mustang guys that would be pissed off over the many HO conversions T-Bird/Cougar guys have done.

well im not trying to be a smart A## here but there is a guy parting a complete 87 tc with 7000 miles on it yes 7000 mile i typed it right i talked to him to ask him why because truthfully i dont think he should because a car like this should deffinatly be saved he says its been sitting since 1987 so all the brake lines and vacuum hoses are cracking and worn away he says it has a brand new interior which i find amazing for a car 22 years old.

I agree with Carm, his last 2 threads weren't closed because of him, but the people giving him constant shiznit for what he's doing.

My biggest beef is, that here are people trying to save all these cars, but when there's one for sale, hardly anyone ever steps up to the plate to buy them, If you REALLY wanna avoid it going to the hands of someone who is going to use it to finish their Mustang, then freaking step up to the plate and save it then. Don't play your heroism for these cars by bashing other people.

OOOOH  My freaking blood is starting to boil over this Momma's boy, Troll . Are you telling me this fool can't go to turbo ford and find the  he wants? He was offered the complete parts set-up he needs by members here but was to arrogant or stupid to take their advice and now here we are posting for more TC parts over and over for some ass looking Mustang piece of  that's at least 67 colors.  I joined this site cuz I like the cars...this fool joined to rip one apart.
The liitle punk has zero respect and you know who can F-off as was so elegantly put earlier.

ok, this may be a little too late, but looking for parts in your instance is better than looking for a complete and running and otherwise drivable TC that you'd just part out.
I'm NOT ragging on you here, just giving some heads up.
Have you tried ebay? craigslist? turboford.net?
local junkyards?

I'll explain what TC's mean to most of us here:
To us, they're the Mustang Cobra....the pinnacle of our hobby.
I know that not every car can be saved....but when the ones that are worth saving are few and far between, even yours, that you say is pretty  rough, well, to us...it's easily fixable/restorable/what-have you.

So yeah, we're gonna get testy about it. Believe me, I caught flak for parting out a rusty, wrecked '88 TC that didn't even have a shaging title, and several people here called me on it
But at least most of the parts went to other cars and lived on. So yeah, in your defense I see your side as well. It's just that decent TC's of ANY year, especially the 4-eyes, are getting ever more scarce. Plenty of parts online for sale without stripping down a running one.

Like I said, I'm not busting on you here, and I think the time has come for some people to realize that if you don't have a thing nice to say then maybe you should shut the shag up and leave well enough alone???

Personally, If I still had the LA3 and a VAM (not vaf, lol, there is no such thing ;)) I'd sell it to him because the car that it came off of is long long gone to Thunderbird heaven, and it'd save him from parting a good car.

But now I guess because he's pissed in everyone's
wheaties and he can't find used parts, he WILL buy a running TC to supply what he needs. Nice bit of irony, there ain't it..?:punchballs:

Oh well, I've said my piece, now be done with it.:mad:

now so everyone could see that i wasnt trying to yell just to stand out so it catches your eye now like i have said before if i could save this car i would and i am im saving the motor and one of my brothers friends is saving the car so the car isnt going to be parted the only thing is that it wont have the original engine and tranny.

you say that your brothers friend is saving the car?  what is a turbo coupe without a turbo engine?  I will remember to buy up some cobra mustangs and put a few V6's in them ;)  if that is what saving them means to you..  I remember a post where a guy offered you a running FREE 2.3t and you didnt even look into it.
