Haystack, here is the Zero option car you always wanted........ 40K Mile survivor

Near as i can tell from the pics, Manual everything, v6 , passenger mirror delete.  Might be the lowest option 83 i have seen to date.  The front plate bracket may be the only "option".

I missed it too...

Id prefer a v-8, but an engine swap is much easier then deleting options.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

There's no happy medium, is there guys? LOL.

I tried to delete some unwanted options from my Sport and ended causing myself a whole world of headaches..

^this didn't have  on it, so there really wasn't much to remove, lol. I really would have liked cruise control and the electric trunk opener though.

I have tilt delete column covers, door lock delete plates (fill in the buttons on the doors), a/c controls with no defroster, cruise delete steering wheel (standard, not TC).....

As far as sunvisors...check out the Explorers. I got mine from a Mountaineer with gray interior. They were a direct swap. Bolted right in and the light plugs even matched the ones on the Bird. AND, they have the extra visor for front and side sun protection.

Nice. :)

I picked up a radio delete plate not long ago. Also have the passenger outside mirror delete plate. Still no antenna delete plate though.
Did you ever get a non-delay wiper switch?
