Im gonna see if they have any lx taillights, cobra r wheels (not likely but worth a try) and i was wondering what else i should see if they have.

Explorer/Mountaineer 5.0 Intake and Heads (see if my dad approves )

Are there any cars i can pick a aluminum driveshaft off of and it will work? or would i pray someone wrecked their stang w/ a alumn. in it?

is there any other performance items i can possibly use? im gonna buy a alumn driveshaft really soon im sure, it sure would be nice if i could find one there.
 

Look Its Aaron

Your car looks like it came straight from Mexico.

Man, i don't know how you guys find all that good stuff at the junkyard. When I go to the junkyard, i'm lucky if I even find ONE 87-93 mustang, and if i'm lucky enough to find one, that bad boy is stripped down to nothing. I've never seen an explorer or a taurus either. CA junkyards blow!

Can get those to basicly "bolt on"?

MustangMulch, I goto a junkyard about 30 min. from here, and they have about 10 79-93 Mustangs. None are GTs, nor 5.0s though. So, there is nothing I really want out of them. None of the junkyards have any Explorers, or any 94+ Dodge Ram 1500 pick-ups that I want stuff out of for my truck.

I would grab anything you could think of. Like headlight switches, turn signal assemblies, dimmer switches, power window motors, etc....

Also the junkyard is a great place to stock up on fuses!
