Add t bird mirrors to a mark 7!


Now, that would look cool. I never liked the bulky, ostentatious chrome mirrors on the Mark VIIs; especially on the LSCs or LSC SEs. If you could go the monochromatic route (like the SEs) and make the mirrors body color, it would be mondo smooth.

Let us know how that works out.

Well i looked into it. Mark mirrors are heated so the harness is different, BUT the wires have the same colors. So I figure if i cut and splice them together, remove the other pins for the heated part they should work. Then I want to black out the trim. I want subtle but different mods on mine, thats why i grabbed the mirrors. Once vin finds me some good dew wipes I'm gonna try it. I'll get some pics. I hope it looks as good as I think it will.

Ok, High preasure power steering hose is in the mail! Brakes are gonna be 140 shipped, which is fine by me. Flow tubes custom made at 24 inches for the mark is gonna be 60 bucks. Everything is coming together, I'm getting so excited I want parts so I can finish this pig!

Question. Would it be stupid to reuse mt old tie rod ends? They are replacements with grease fittings, and they seem pretty good. I'm just gonna clean the old grease out and put all new fresh in there, unless you guys think while I have everything apart I should just replace them?
Hope to have the rack in early next week, fuel lines in around then as well. Then comes a new brake line, and the new rear rotors, front rotors and front pads. Then my new h pipe!

its charcoal rockers, and the 90 has the BBS wheels. Good choice, you won't be disappointed! Throw your exploder intake on, a exhaust, turbo coupe sway bar, and some good shocks and you will be in love!
And i mean the end of all the waiting !

Got the new rear shocks in today.
Ordering new rear pads, front inner and outer wheel bearings, and seals, getting a brake line, fluid, and bleeders.
Once its movable, my friend might flatbed it to his shop and let me use his lift and tools to bang out the exhaust, and other things. It should be coming together really soon!
