Hey, i was lookin at the carlise pics awhile back and saw something about a wide body tbird, i was wondering.. What the hell? Is there a kit for it if not what the hell did he do? Cuz i was wanting to do that to my car too, but only on the rear end and if its custom i got some other ides to make my car really.. REALLY cusomized >=]. But if anyone knows please let me know! Thanks, Will jackson

Yeah, that one. I wasnt wanting to buy it, but I was wanting to find out how he did it? Because i have come to the conclusion that body kits for a 87-88 bird dont exist and thats some hellacious body work, but i was wanting to know exactly what he did to it?
That's kind of cool looking....I think.I haven't decided if it has grown on me or not.It is definitely a profesional job,but the front looks strictly a bolt on of the hood and fenders.The rear,on the other hand,looks like some attaching and body filler was involved.

Too much fun, what's that mean?That's like too much boost,there's no such thing.

They sell a full body kit for the TC on the jcwhitney site. They run for about $400 or so (I think, maybe more..) Go check it out. http://www.jcwhitney.com

I went to the JCWhitney site and didn’t see anything like a full body kit, especially for $400. (I did see a nice cowl induction hood for $462)
But….WOW, that car is sure beautiful! Absolutely awesome lines…
Kindof reminds me of a Victoria Secret’s Model! Defiantly a professional body job!
I did see that car and like Hybrid, I'm not sure if I like it or not, sure is one of a kind though, I may be way off base here, but I was thinking that the fenders that extend over the dualees on a p/u truck could be used with a little modification.
rockinusa,

It is very simple to find it, you just have to look for it. Here's the Link. They sell two kinds of body kits for the TC. Both are priced at $449.95. This is only for 87-88 Turbo Coupes though.

About half that wide would have been awesome, with tires that came out to the edge of the widebody. Also, lose the stripes.
