I'm getting ready to strip the interior.  Need anything that's grey with the 85+ style?

Looks great :D

I'd stick the molding between the bumpers and wheels back on though. That way the molding on the bumpers flows back into the lines of the car and does not stick out so much.

It came out great! Do you have some type of a spoiler added to the bumper? It looks good.

Look for an 87-88 Thunderbird turbocoupe in a junkyard or find someone with a hood from one for sale. It will bolt right up.
