T-Bird/Cougar Parts & Cars FOR SALE / FS: 1988 Ford Thunderbird
Hey guys.  Gotta sell my thunderbird and i thought i would give this place a shot.  Havent been around for awhile.  Anyways, rather than type up another description, here is the same one from the CL ad....

I am the second owner of this car. Car had 57,000 miles when i bought it and now has 71,095 miles. At that point in time, the car had never been driven in snow. Over the five years that i have owned the car, the car has been driven in snow only a few times. Car has very nice interior with a few stains behind the driver seats on floor(covered by mats). Dash has the typical cracking(have dash mat to cover it). Alpine CD player is installed(faceplate not shown in picture). There was an amp and sub woofers in the trunk but i have removed them. However the wiring is still there. I will throw in the sub woofers and amp for an extra $150. The paint is very nice. There is a few door dings/paint chips/scratches but that is typical for a 20 year old car. Rear bumper could use a nice coat of black paint. There is virtually no rust out. There is one small bubble in the paint behind the left rear wheel. Hard to see.

The car has never been wrecked. I have replaced the water pump, heater core, thermostat, alternator, rear shocks, valve cover gaskets, spark plugs/wires/cap/etc., and battery. The steering wheel was replaced with one from a Turbo Coupe. Goodyear tires were new when we bought the car and still have excellent tread. Brake pads were replaced last year. When bought, new dual exhaust with turbo lers was installed. The car runs good and strong. It has an automatic transmission and has the 5.0 Liter V8 engine. Heater works and the A/C will need to be recharged. A/C was converted to 134 type freon. Overall, this is a very nice car.

T-Bird/Cougar Parts & Cars WANTED / WTB: Dash, Radio Trim, Ash Tray Assembly, etc...
$35 sounds very reasonable.  and yea, please post a pic later and will go from there.

As for the dash cap, do i take my old cracked one off or do i just lay it over and glue it down.  do you have pictures of these?

EDIT: went back and reread your post and see that i glue it over my original.
