So it's been the opposite for me. The non-premium sound cars I've owned had no speakers, but had the wiring.

I have a set of manual mirrors on my 86 cougar. I pulled then off a 83 well optioned car. I actually deleted every power option on that car.

Reminds me of a car I saw locally many years ago. Came from the factory with a vent window on one side but none on the other side. Owner thought it...

I'm curently mid-swap into putting an SN95 8.8 under my 87 T, to run 09 "bullit" wheels. i'll let you knowwhat i find out

CoogarXR, You said you had a digital cluster laying around?? Does it happen to be the '85/'86 style? Could it be for sale? Just curious. Thanks.

Noted. He also have two stock bellhousings, so i may just grab one of those.

Lakewood bellhousing= pain in the ass. Had one and would walk everyday before I ever install another one. Worst engineered part when it comes to...
