Whoa Boys, 87-88 Cougar and 87-88 T-Bird have many identical parts. My 88 TC has a fender from an 87 Cougar and a door from an 88 Cougar. The left rocker panel is from an 88 Cougar.

To get a full list, check with Eric at CoolCats!

Pete and I could use a few new body parts :eek: , but I don't think T-bird or Cougar donors will help!

the body lines on the doors do match just not the glue on trim. it needs to be swapped.

The body lines on the doors and fenders DO NOT MATCH between 83-86 and 87-88!!! I have both an 88 TC and 86 Tbird 5.0 sitting right next to each other.... I know!

Doesnt have to be an XR7. Any correct year range Cougar will be fine.
