Hey Mike. The seat belt sleeves are all broken up. It is definitely annoying to sit on the seat belt buckle - I understand! The seats are NOT power recline, but can the outer trim be adapted? I have not seen what power recline looks like. Pics of the interior are forthcoming...

How much for the wheels (w/shipping)? I've been looking for a nice set of turbines.

That car looks almost too nice to part out!

The car is in nice restorable shape, but does have some rust spots around the rear wheel wells, bottom of the doors and trunk lid. Other than that, a solid platform. I just don't need the Cougar AND the Thunderbird AND the Mustang.

50tbrd88, buy the car for $1,200 and you get the wheels. :) The turbines are in great shape with no curb rash. The front wheels have permanent brake dust on them. The rear wheels are in very nice shape. I need to acquire two more space savers before taking the wheels off. I don't know how much shipping would be, but $100 + shipping for the wheels and tires.

PM me when you get the car on spare tires...I am very interested in them. I wouldn't need the tires necessarily so that would make shipping/boxing up easier.

I plan on going with something different in the wheel department on my car over the winter and would use the turbines for a 2nd set of wheels.

It's not much,but I could use the rear window trim clips,as many as can be saved.I would also take the headlights and the plate holder.

Hey Kitz. The headlights are yours and I will attempt to save the rear window trim clips. The front plate holder is already spoken for.

Do you want all the lights, or just the headlights?

Any hints on how to get the rear window trim off and save the clips and trim?

Thanks,
Jon

They make a clip tool, But if you don't care about scratching the car ,just start prying it off,if you look at the clips they just slide up off the pins in the channel.There might be some debris in the way. I only need the headlights. I will take the r\s taillight to, I"ll give you 30 for the pair,just give me the cat out of the l\s don't ship the rest of it. PM me a price and how you would like to be paid, Thanks.

Kitz, PM sent.

Romeo2k, I know, it is sad to see it get parted out, but will cause others foxes to live on. There is a tripminder and XR7/TC steering wheel. I plan to transfer the TripMinder to my TC, but the steering wheel is up for grabs if you are interested.
