1997 Called, they want their car back...... my 1986 T-bird build Reply #46 – March 11, 2014, 08:38:17 AM The quick fix on the rust turned into a major project so the T-bird is outside under a tarp for now. I'll be gathering parts here and there to continue the build once the Mustang is back on all four wheels. If you need me, I'll be over here fixing rust: http://vb.foureyedpride.com/showthread.php?158238-Our-1986-GT-Project Quote Selected

1997 Called, they want their car back...... my 1986 T-bird build Reply #50 – April 09, 2014, 04:43:26 AM Hey sorry about the wiring being a rats nest on that car. When my dad had it I took a lot of the plugs for my 88 along with the dash. Hope it goes well for ya though. Say I originally was ganna buy that car from him after I came back from basic and drop a 460 In it. But then I fell in love with the turbo coupes. But keep up the good work. Quote Selected

I'm going to replace the wiring with a painless style harness to eliminate some of the things I will no longer use. I jokingly call it my street rod project because on top of the painless harness I'm thinking of using a Vintage Air A/C setup to clean up the engine bay. Quote Selected

Interested to see where this complete teardown leads.fwiw, I know you have at this point abandoned the sn-95 dash, but there was a member on here who successfully accomplished the swap a few years ago. ...here is his thread.... [thread]12549[/thread] it starts on page 6 Quote Selected

I picked up a 92 Mustang Coupe and I'll be working on it this summer. Then, back onto the T-bird full time once it moves under its own power. Quote Selected
