I'd say junkyard or craigslist and find someone parting out...those are probably the most common interior colors so you shouldn't have any problem finding a new one.

I had an '88 GT and my rear seats were perfect and square like that. The guy i bought it from was a hermit...he didn't really have any friends or family and was single, and he told me that only ONE person had ever sat in the passenger seat before he took me for a ride in it. The driver's seat was FUBAR though

So yeah i'd say probably not many people rode in the back.

Nah, there tends to be less flamers over there and more mature/down to Earth people, so if you act like an ass they'll just tell you so or put you in the whipping room for a while. I think there's a thread about Dayton people meeting up somewhere, so you might wanna tag along with them.

Hey Ryan, do you recall me saying that your wreck would someday be a thing of the past and things would work out to the better in the end?


That interior looks 100x better than your last one (no offense to the work you put in). All you need is a decent set of rims and that'll be one nice ass vert.

maybe..haven't decide yet. bought that from a buddy of mine..brand new..never used. for...200 bucks.. 331 all forged stroker kit! thats deal! then i helped him move some **** and he gave me an alum driveshaft, set of wheels from his 99 GT lol. so i may just sell it and make some money. or tuck it into the corner for a rainy day

it was an amazing day..plus he gave me gas money for taking the parts he gave me away from his storage unit

Damn Ryan, get yourself a spare block and have it machined and throw that stroker kit in it. It's really not that hard to put it all together. Throw some P heads on it for one seriously strong budget engine.

I like it man. Looking good. You definitely made a wise decision to grab it for that price. And then the hook up from your buddy . You don't happen to be Irish by any chance ?
