I have a 88 tbird sport coupe with a 5.0 so engine and aod automatic. So far i have swapped into the car a h.o. intake and t.b.(have old intake with the car) k&n filter, removed air baffle, underdrive pulley, smog eliminator (still have pump i think), h.o. headers>h-pipe>dynomax lers>lx stainless tailpipes, traction lock rear (7.5 i think and unsure on gearing yet) i planned on doin a 8.8 turbocoupe swap into it, a/c removed other then pump itself, runs good shifts nicely (tranny was said to have 70k on it as it was changed out), car has 160k on it but runs great.

body is in need of work....washiznit lightly in front end when previous owner had the car and it cracked the header panel, and the front bumper isnt the best either(i do have another front bumper thats alot better shape) theres rust in various places on the body the front right fender needs replaced due to rust which i should have very shortly and will throw in with car. rear pass side quarter has dents etc and will need replaced or one heck of a bodyman.....rear left is bung up but mainly just needs some bodywork to be in order. car has various surface rust and will needs cleaned up and painted im sure.....trunk lid needs replaced....tailights are tinted out by myself but one has a hole in it. .....it does need a dipstick too....when we changed the headers the original got mangled......also car has turbines on it but not the best either. interior has red seats with tan interior which is rough but complete......floor shifter automatic. guages with tach.

i can direct you to most of these parts cheaply if someones interested....i just dont have the time to do bodywork or i would as the car runs great. when im talking cheaply im sayin under 400. probably for all of it or less. this car has a pa inspection and runs great, im tryin to get 800. i have quite a bit into the car for stuff like exhaust and i drive the car daily and its never given me a problem whatsoever.

The cars located in western pa 45 miles north of pittsburgh and anyones more then welcome to come look at it.

we also have a 88 xr7 were going to be parting out its a complete car with bad tranny....8.8 traction lock rear(3.08? not sure on gearing yet), complete quick ratio steering rack with lines and pump, cougar turbine wheels (with all caps i believe), bad aod tranny for core or rebuild, very nice royal blue interior, keeping motor but not sure if anything else yet or not so send your request for either car or parts to: thecrytzers@alltel.net

thankx
