Thanks guys. I don't have any interior shots at the moment. I'm not sure what was standard on these but it's got power everything, digital dash, full console, locking gas door, remote trunk release, a/c, and thats about all I can think of at the moment.
No other pinstripes on the car.

I don't think you have an élan model, just a very well optioned base car.  The élan was the luxury group and came with a lot more standard options and upgraded interior. No matter cause its a beauty either way.

Hey OP...are you looking to make more power, or big power?  Or just a nice cruiser?(which it will do just fine)

I have a set of center caps, I'll check them on the 10 holes that are on my other bird. If they fit, they're yours.
Beautiful Bird btw !!!!

Just going to swap the 5.0 out of the my Mustang. It's just a stock shortblock with HCI. Not sure if the bottle will come with or not because I'd like to do a turbo at some point we'll see though. It's going to be more of a cruiser.

I love the look of 10 holes on t-birds.  My 85 turbo coupe had them and had the Bird on the center of the cap, I LOVED that car.
Love Foxes, Birds or Stangs.
