The Bird and the GP May 03, 2008, 02:17:48 PM I never did post pics of the Grand Prix. And of course heres the 'Bird.As you can see it needs a front end.And the dent by the back window needs fixed.Yes I know the wheels are mis-matched but the other one that were on the front didnt hold air.

The Bird and the GP Reply #1 – May 03, 2008, 04:10:46 PM You gonna put a Cougar front end on it? Quote Selected
The Bird and the GP Reply #2 – May 03, 2008, 04:28:46 PM No, I'm trying to find a 'tbird front end for it but I havent had much luck. However it had a busted up Cougar front at one point in time that I threw away(shouldve kept it). The car was gonna get fixed up and have the V8 and 5spd swapped in before I started driving it but the GP decided it didnt want to be drivin anymore and now I'm stuck driving a V6 'bird with no front end.That Cougar you see in the picture belongs to a freind, I'm just storing it for him till hes able to free up some space at his house.

That sail panel is gonna be tricky. It was alot worse when I got the car but I got most of it pushed out, not really sure yet on how I'm gonna fix it the rest of the way.QuoteAny pics/details of the cougar?No pics at the moment but its a 20th Anny(yes it was painted blue) with a 306, E303 cam, Mass-Air, mustang shortys, 2 1/2 catless hpipe, and 2 1/2 flowmaster american thunders. It also has a Mustang rear end with 3.73 gear. Quote Selected

Like the GP I'd take ya up on that offer if you were just a few states closer lol. The GP aint that bad of a car. The frame on the car is really in good shape except for one spot. It looks like it had a gas leak for a good while that helped that spot on the frame go rather quick, but other than that it runs and drives great plus it only has 89,000 miles on it. Quote Selected
