that interior look clean! there are always wheels on ebay, there is a set of the black reproductions for under 400.00 get the wheels and spoiler and it will be nice. The rear hatch is different, because of the holes to mount the spoiler. To put a cobra spoiler on that hatch you have to weld up several holes and drill a few new ones. Your cheapest option is an aftermarket spoiler for around 125.00 but they look different where two center pedestals meet the front edge. if your interested a oem spoiler let me know, i have several from damaged to repainted, nice, and even an nos one.

You are a hero if you can save that car.

That is an easy save man, wheels, tires, and a new hatch.

Agreed. A little love an you'll have a decent driver. Sounds like you bought it right too. I'd say it's a good find if you were looking for a low priced car you can work on.

It's on it's way . I have found some wheels( thanks jstanley) and it's going in for some paint fixes and dent removal. I was not looking for a 93 but could not pass it up. I was going to buy one new but bought a Lightning instead. It's a nice garage mate for my 97.

That was my thought. The guy had a lincoln towncar on 20's and a navigator on 24's. I got it for 5k, I figure it will take 2k to get it right. Half the fun is working on it. I hope to have it ready by spring.

So how's the de-gangstering coming along Paul?

Paul Whalen · Post by **Paul Whalen** » Sat Feb 09, 2013 6:28 pm

It was 50 degrees today so I cleaned up the engine. except for a set of shortys and taylor plug wires appears to be stock. So far it has the correct wheels and tail lenses now. I saving up for a new hatch and a wing. Then some minor paint work and it's ready for spring
