Parting out a 88 TC? April 14, 2008, 06:26:46 PM I recently got my hands on a rust free 1988 Turbo Coupe with 85k for parts. Sat outside for 10 years. Dibs on the suspension (shocks, springs, swaybars, control arms) interior bits, wheels, T-5, electronics that work on other Fords and rear axle to be exact. Everything else is up for grabs. What 2.3L parts are worthy of selling on this forum? I don't call myself pro-five-oh for no reason. I don't know squat about 2.3Ls.I am sure someone would want this hood, that's for sure. Yes I would NOT part it out if I felt the car was worth it. Please help me with the parts, I'm not planning on making much $$$, I just wanna share the wealth. Quote Selected

Parting out a 88 TC? Reply #2 – April 17, 2008, 07:35:01 AM Because I've seen better get sped down here. Every car in Houston is rust free...that's not special. Plus it sat outside for 5 years with two broken windows. (vandals stole the stereo) Its a complete mess. The former owner says he loves the car, but couldn't be concerned with replacing the windows or putting a tarp on it? Its parts are gonna help my Cougar, my friend's Mark VII and my brother's Mustang...and once we do that, there won't be much left. Not a bad deal for $250. Quote Selected
