T-Bird/Cougar Parts & Cars FOR SALE / 88 XR 7 for parts.
It seems to be in pretty good shape. That remains to be seen if I can take it off and not rip it up... PM your private email and I will send you a pic. Then we can talk about money.. I am not in this for the money, I just know stuff like this is hard to find. I already have an 88 'bird that is in mint condition, and I just need a few parts off the 'cat.

T-Bird/Cougar Parts & Cars FOR SALE / 88 XR 7 for parts.
I am done with my second V-8 swap and the donor car is ready to be cannibalized. Most of the drive line is gone, including distributor. But the interior is SUPER CLEAN (dark blue), hood is 99% rust free, all lights and harnesses and associated housings are fully intact.... Let me know what you may need and  will get it for you.  I am in MN between the TC and St. Cloud. Zip is 55308 to help calculate shipping.

Electrical Tech / Dash illumination
Are there just Gremlins in the dash then? I finished installing an aftermarket stereo last night and now my dash does not light up, the right blinker signal doesn't flash, the clock doesn't work, and my trunk release quit working. wtf? :punchballs:

Engine Swapping / T5's still in the crate....
Thanks guys.  Left the T 5 in the crate for now. Went with a C-4. Now I have progressed onto finding the right rear end for her. Looking at an 8.8 from a 93 Mark VIII or a 4.10 8.8 from a 97 Ranger.

Engine Swapping / engine swap
I have a 3.8 in my bird currently. I have a 5.0 H.O. out of a 93 Mustang that is going in. The auto tranny that is in now is also being replaced with a rebuilt aped-out T5 out of an 88 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe.  The Mustang motors always had a special computer, correct? I need to get a computer conversion harness that will get my car and the new motor to talk, correct?
