I have a 1983 thunderbird 5.0. This car was a buy from a salvage auction after suffering a engine bay fire. I’ve rewired the car and got it running perfectly. Now I’m in need of some little parts that in my area are difficult if not impossible to find. The parts list I have for this car is;
Hood latch assembly
Hood latch release cable
Door panels
Center console arm rest
Does anyone have any suggestions to where I need to look to find these? I’ve looked on eBay and Some of the stuff is there but extremely over priced. I contacted a few places like the tbird ranch but I’m still waiting on a returned call and other places just tell me to check junk yards. The junk yards here in Tennessee laugh when you tell them the car and say the crushed those the day they came through the gates. I’m only one in a 100 mile radius that has a tbird of this year and no one knows anything about them. I can’t find anything that shows if anything is interchangable and how far you can go with the years and parts like I’m needing. So any information would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!
