Here is a thread I made up on making Mustang Halo headrests fit in a Panther.

I got new wheels today for the summer, just for looks and such, since i still have the turbines with tons of life left to them.
one tire has a gash that i am not thrilled about at all but w/e it holds air.

those will look so good on that car. the gun metal on the wheels will work well with the brown and the black out treatment.

i think so too. After i got them home i placed them in the wheel wells and they looked good. really good.
that gash in the sidewall is an accident waiting to happen. other than that the rims look nice.
Give a man a fish and he will be fed for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will promptly forget that he once did not know, and proceed to call anyone who asks, a n00b and flame them on the boards for being stupid.
i am totally with you, i do not like the gash one bit.
are you getting new rubber?
if your gonna use the tires just dont plan on doing any highway interstate driving... i'd really hate to see you get hurt or fuck your car up.

i think i am gonna replace the one bad tire and then have fun with them. I dont want a blow-out either luckly the other tires are clean and have no gashes. The man i bought them from was obviously a bad parallel parker.
Sweet!!!! Wait a minute; is your CV a daily driver or a project car? Though now that I think about it, your car weighs enough that you should have traction in the snow even with the Bullitts. Can't wait to see pics of them installed.

Come to think about it i may just smoke the gashed tire along with another one and just buy two new tires. At least i have a reason to make some smoke now. :evil:
Don't hurt those rims mang!
nice wheels!
can you see chord in the gash? if not, I wouldn't worry about it.

Couple days ago I purchased a pristine condition passengers side dew wipe for a full windowed two door. I have a vent windowed two door, but moding this perfect condition item should be no big deal. I got the item from WagonMan (Pete) and I could not be more satisfied with the condition of it. It is flexible and feels o so new, I am truly estatic because the brandy new one TeamFord never arrived. Here are some pics of the fine piece of dew wipe.
With the addition of this item to my collection I am only looking for a passengers side window channel run and a drivers side dew wipe, because I was fortunate to get a brandy new drivers side window channel run from TeamFord a while back.
Those stang wheels auta set it off well, get that 79 grill on yet? now just need some clear marker lights
not to sound like a n00b but to this day, i have no clue to how them door sil moldings come off. my 1981 ford chassis and electrical book only states the type of clip but not the removal, install looks pretty straight forward. i tried to rip some off a mark VI to replace mine at a wreckers but couldent make it lol

hey Dave..The stang wheels will look damn nice once i get them on there..The grill will go on, after i get my car painted...which may not be this year anymore...:cry:....and I am waiting to pounce on a set of clear markers...once the price is right...and if i have the munnies for it.
There are a couple of screws holding them in addition to those clips. After the screws are removed then you pry upward hoping for the best.
