T-Bird/Cougar Parts & Cars WANTED / '87/'88 passenger side fender trim...
McKinney is about sixty miles from Gainesville (thirty to the south and thirty to the east).  It would be a lot cheaper just to mail it.

I have PayPal (edensker@tx.rr.com).  I paid $15 plus shipping for this piece.  I bought it by mistake from a guy who was parting out a car, as I thought that I was getting the piece with the place for the light.  Oops.  I would like to get my money back out of it.  How does $15 + $4 shipping sound?

Also, I will post a photo of it this weekend, so that you can be sure that my piece is exactly what you need.  I would hate to see you get something other than what you expected.

If you are talking about the trim piece that goes behind the front bumper and in front of the wheelwell, I have one.  It is the version that does not have the opening for the light.  It is black with a little chrome strip.

If this sounds like what you need, let me know and I'll post of a photo of it.

Lounge / Odd 1980 T-bird
I used to see a fair number of Birds that were pimped up that way back when those cars were new.  I think that the funky trunk and grill were items that dealers would order and install at the behest of a customer. 

I was never a fan of that look.  It makes the car look too much like that monstrosity that was driven by Bill Blazejowski in "Night Shift."
