Hey guy's and member's; Can I put a 1985 t-bird front clip whole thing, on a 1983 T-bird thanks for any and all help here Barry
yes you can, here is a place where you can find all of the info like that http://www.coolcats.com :D enjoy
Yes. Everything should bolt up just fine as far as I know.
i think u meant coolcats.net:D
i do that sometimes also
Well since I have an '85 nose on my '83....I think it should work just fine.
Actually they are the same pieces.
Wouldn't that basicly be a grill change. Unless it's some sort of aftermarket unit. The 83 being the Square style grill and the 85 being the floating bar type grill.
I here ya about the grill, but what I was asking is that, does the fender's and hood and all the front all bolt right up
They are exactly the same save for maybe the hinges on the hood, so grab the ones from the 85 if you are swapping hoods too.
The 83 and 85 front clip can be interchanged.but be carefull when it comes to the hood and hinges. I did the swap once and found that the distance between the hood mounting bolts to the hinge were different,probably by half an inch. So mixing 83 and 85 hinge - hood didnt work. But the whole assemble is interchangable.
Well the 88 turbo coupe hood bolted right up to my 84 t/c hinges. The only difference that I know in the hinges it the the 85 up have the self supprting hinge where the 83-84 had the regualr hinge that you need the prop rod for. I've also got a 86 header panel and 86 passenger side fender. Everything bolted up just fine.
thanks guys Sounds good gonna start the change next week thanks loads again Eh!! Barry
