Wait, do you need the standard or the high series panels? No Cougars after 1986 had the high series panels.

I have a pretty nice set of red panels from an '88 T-bird Sport that I have considered throwing out that I've been hanging onto for years.  I think they are complete.  Don't know if these are the same as TC panels, but they are definitely a 'higher option level' panel than the standard Bird.  If you're interested, please make me an offer.  Thanks.

nah, those are the base panels, for 87 & 88, ONLY the TC & LX got the high end panels. 87/88 Base panels were of better build quality compared to the 83-86 panels.

I like my 84 panels. They have a cougar head in them. I think that brings the count to ELEVEN.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

I thought those were 83-only?

Build date on the car was 04/84 if I remember right. Had amber turn signals too. Matches my 83-84 front end either way.

SOrry to hijack.

I have a friend that had a red 83 base Thunderbird with red dash & carpet, but WHITE leather seats & door panels, I think I shared it on here before.
