Here are few pictures of my 88 sport that I bought from a guy on the board (thesoldan). This thing needs to be dropped bad so I ordered some motorsport springs for it. I will post more pictures when I put them in. The last picture is what it looked like when I bought it.

Wow, those rims change the cars look completely. I can't wait to see it dropped. With the rims black, I wonder how it would look if you painted the grill black too?

I wasn't a big fan of Cobra Rs in anything other than silver but those black ones with the polished lip just make that car. I'm surprised at how good they look :D

The sport came with a 302 (non HO) and floor shifter.

Base... about everything is optional(except A/C), 3.8, crank windows, thin seats and carpet std... VIN will begin 1FABP60...
Sport... 5.0, Turbo Coupe type bucket seats and console are std, as is buttstuffogue dash with 6000 rpm tach... Uses Base type door panels, power windows, mirrors. etc are optional(almost all had these though) Black out window trim... VIN 1FABP61...(note the '87 Sport was equipped with Digital dash and thin material, base type seats)
LX... Has Turbo Coupe door panels, but uses cushy velour seats with the consolette... All the power assists are std, 5.0 optional... VIN 1FABP62...
Turbo Coupe... Has all the goodies, but only half a motor(IMHO)... VIN 1FABP64...

Thanks man, I can't believe nobody took this car for what you were selling it for. I bought a trans for it but it ended up not needing a trans, the kickdown cable was not hooked up. I'm going to lower it next.
