Heard about a junkyard not to far from home. Heard it had some foxes, so loaded up and went, thought maybe we could find some stuff for the t-top build. I think i'm going back and get the t-top glass and t-top door glass. Maybe we'll just take em all and start our own junkyard. Not the dodge though.

it also has a Z3 fender inside, a rice body kit front bumper hanging off of it and a rice rear bumper on it. It does look like it was originally a factory calypso green 4cyl coupe though.

Yeah... I hear you. Everytime I see cars at the junk yard, specially a Fox Mustang, I feel sorry to see that what was someones dream, is just crumbs now.

A couple months ago I saw at the junk yard an '82 Capri in perfect condition in and out, I mean non faded, complete interior with a decent paint job. The thing just needed and engine and a tranny. I wish I could save than thing! amnit:

More so when they're un-wrecked. I was at the JY last week there was a nice vert with a black interior and a ghost flame paint job. It was there on a count of its rusty frame rails and strut towers, actually 2/3rds of the foxes were there because of rusty frame/towers... great design Ford.

You think I could find a set of doors for my t-top GT? yeah right!

Well the doors on that t-top hatch weren't that bad, they did have some surface rust.
