Parting my '88 Sport in the weeks to come...PICS ADDED 9/26!!!

Well, I just bought a Crown Vic, so I'm going to be parting out the 'Bird.

Asking $1,100/OBO just a starting point, make me an offer, I have all warranty info and receipt.

11" front brake conversion with rotors, bearings, spindles, calipers, hoses, newer mustang struts and newer strut mounts...about 60% pad life. 
Asking $200/OBO

15" 10-hole SSP black replica wheels, not perfect but nice.  Has 225/60R16 Fuzion HRi's on them, less than a year old, new they're @11/32", now at 10/32". Less than 2500mi.

ChuckW's poly mounts
Asking $50 sale pending
other interior parts available, tail-lights and headlights and Turbo Coupe/Sport rear sway bar.  If you want anything not listed...ask!

I'm also open to trades...I'm looking for 16" police wheels with centercaps, an aftermarket lock-up convertor for an AOD, aluminum CV or GM driveshaft.  Maybe even a SuperCoupe AOD, AODE or aftermarket AOD.

Parts located in Aiken, SC 29803
Thanks,

I'm interested in the Chuck W Motor Mounts.  Are they fairly new?  Any pics?

Even if they aren't fairly new, it won't matter. Pull the dampeners out, soak the metal in some cleaner, spray off the dampeners, put back together, and away you go. I picked up spare dampeners of different strengths but so far so good - I think at 2 years now and no noticeable aging of them.

Good mounts, that's for sure, and gives me clearance where I had to dent my headers with the stock mounts - even after grinding the stock mounts to limits that probably damaged the mount safety bar structurally.

I'd pick up the springs, the taillights, and the front inner marker lights.

I'd get the poly mounts too if they're not already spoken for.

Are you selling the body?

ChuckW's mounts are pending sale.  The door panels are grey, not great...I'll get some pics this weekend hopefully.

I would sell the body, if you want a slightly rusted northern car.  It won't even be a rolling chassis.

I'm going to work on pics this weekend.

Are the front seat belts blue?  I'm needing ones that are not all cracked and broken (sleeves, if nothing else).

Thx!
