Not a problem! On a side note - I think I tracked down that TC that I missed out on by 30 minutes last year. Are you still interested in any parts from it?

Yes. I forget which parts I'm interested in, but I'm likely interested in something :D

Um, what's going on with the compressed suspension on the front end, and rear possibly?


Looks like it was tied down in some of the pics, and not in others.

My guess would be from the tie-downs to keep it stuck to the trailer :D

Repairing a lock cylinder that is frozen or sans keys requires a drill, gumption, and a midget on a tricycle.

Looking good, man.

There wouldn't be a drivers side tail light in there somewhere?

I've found it. The guy has 2 87 TCs one black one that he blew the motor in and the white one.
 
He said he's looking for a 305HO to put in the black one, maybe he meant 302HO, I'm not sure.
 
He's willing to part out the white one so I'll check on the DS taillight, and the door emblems, etc. I asked if I could drop by this weekend to have a look. I haven't heard back yet.
 
Shame302, I think you're out of luck on the doors though. If I remember correctly they were pretty bad when i looked at it last year.
 
Anyone have any other parts they are interested in. Just remember RUST.

Hey, if Chevy can make a 302, why can't he get himself a 305 Ford? :hick:

Awesome. Tail lights don't RUST!

I might be interested in the header panel and hood off the white one - since my car's white it would make it that much easier ;)

You obviously have never had one of those nuts seize onto the stud, or had the stud rust and split the post on the tail lights :flip:

Cool! Thanks Tom, I guess that one thing I won't have to worry about :) All I have to worry about now is to hook up the handcontrols to the clutch. I'll tackle that as soon as the bird get here.:sawzall::welder:

Car is in our Toronto yard, and will leave for St. John's via Oceanex barge ASAP.

I might be dropping by to see the white car this weekend. I gave him a link to this sight. Hopefully, he'll sign up so you guys can deal with him directly...
