Go four-eye!! I was contemplating this a while back as well, do a search under my name and look for a thread in 5.0 from the last week or two. I posted pics and everything. There are enough bastardized four-eye cars out there with aero noses on 'em....be different and go retro with yours.

Any front end would fit from '79-86, but I personally think that either the '85-86 and '82 GT noses are the best looking (but good luck on finding an '82 GT nose). What it costs depends on what you can find the parts for, really...

Do you have to get a different hood when switching to a 4 eye?
