The whole front end swaps over. I had a 87 tbird with a 88 cougar front end after surprise buttsecks with a Cadillac.

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.

Looking for a new header panel.  If you're interested in a trade, I could do a partial swap for some cougar headlamps and/or  marchal fogs.

I'd ask if the driver side fender was clean and rust free but shipping from Washington to Illinois would be killer :hick:

Sorry about the late question, since the post is almost 2 months old, ( life took control, married now, and just bought a house. :) ) but I was wondering if you parted the front and rear coil springs? If so, kudos, if not, what would like to get and how much to ship to PA? Thanks in advance!

Shipping is really not that bad, considering the size of the part, if you use Greyhound bus lines. If I recall correctly, the last two I shipped were about $75, and the last one was from Virginia to Washington state. Total cost for the fender and shipping would be about $175. Most of that is the time it takes to make the box to ship it in and the 1 1/2 hour round trip to drop it at the Greyhound station, which is the only hassle about it. It has to be dropped of and picked up at the nearest Greyhound station.X

How are the seats & interior panels?  They look leather from the pics.

All pretty good. The drivers seat bottom could use some repair on the vinyl parts, but the leather is good except for the normal aging process.XXX

You still don't have said driver side fender do you? :hick:

It's the last part I need for my "crash stash".

You can see that it has a little surface rust along the top edge where the paint has worn off, but otherwise perfect.
