Parting out 88 Thunderbird Sport

I'm a single dad that will never have time to finish this car.  I was driving it for years, and then needed a truck, so I got a truck, and now I'm tired of storing the car.

Rear end is out of a '96 Mustang, so it is the correct width for an 87 88 Bird or Cougar.  Built with 4.10 gear ratio and trac loc

5 lug conversion all the way around with 95 spindles, 96 brakes in the front

Ford Racing adjustable prop valve.

Maximum Motorsports C/C plates

Lemme know what you want on the rest of the car.  Its mostly good

Picture of C/C plates and price? Also since you're parting it out, can I get the EEC-IV connector with as much harness attached as possible (a few inches). I want to have one spare in case and hopefully extend it a bit, after what I did to the thing to install the electronic transmission controller...

Pictures of the entire vehicle would be good. I would hope more that someone local can take the entire car from you though...

BTW, I had a 1988 T-Bird Sport way back when. I found out that it was totalled shortly after trading it in. It still has the ignition switch recall to date.

Special thanx to EricCoolCats for showing me to this site.:bowdown:

Vinnie: When I get around to pulling the engine out the timing cover is yours.

Have the C/C plates sold? If not, please send pics.

How about interior stuff? Color? Might be interested in good door pockets and arm rest parts.
