Chrome trim looks good. Be careful of them. Most of us have to paint them cause they're shot.
Kind of excited for this build.

Me too. One of my favorite cars. Don't lose interest because that car is worth it.

Good tailgates are getting hard to find.

Hopefully yours isn't so far gone that you can reuse it if you can't find a suitable replacement.

I feel your pain; Took me awhile to get my similar mess sorted out.

Heres the original deck lid. Its a horror story, but we saved the original tinted glass and spoiler to this car.

This is the used deck lid I found and placed on car 7 to 8 yrs ago it was better than the one on it by a long ways.
But the spoiler was pop riveted on to it and it was still rusty in the window corners. Now after sitting for so long if you push on the spoiler to shut, it wants to fold in half.

So i got on line and used a junk yard parts finder for a replacement.
So for 625$ and 620$ in shipping ( Yes it cost that much to ship to Hawaii)
I got a big box.


Its not off that mustang2 but the lid and picture did come from Desert Vally Auto parts Az.
