parting 87 Cougar LS 5.0...

well now that I got the 20th for a daily driver, the old LS has to go. Need anything let me know, and I will see if I have it, and if it's any good.  :D

I'd love to have that interior but I don't want to pay to have it shipped!  I am not a huge fan of my "scarlet" interior.

any way that you could hold the center console with the brackets and the floor shift for about 2 weeks? If not let me know. Email is right down there ¦

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.

well if you buy the hammer shifter, with all needed to hook up, for $100 + shipping, you can have the console.  :D

It's pretty rusty, and it had all the parts the 20th needed to get it fixed. :D  Beleive me, if I could I would keep them all. :D

Well in that case! I'm looking for the trim around the cluster and the radio, and also the AOD dipstick (yea I know that's weird).

And definitely keep that interior! I've never seen a gold one in that good of condition. Hope someone like Jim K. can put it to good use.

are you looking for the trim with a console, or without?  As for the interior, it's going in my 20th.  The LS has a C6 in it, but I'll see if I have an aod dipstick tube laying around. :D
