If yours is the early style, I have one for you here in Arkansas

How early? mine is an 89 so it has the 87-91 style

With some minor welding and cutting skills and the lower portion of the Rad support is still good, you can graft it onto a new core support.
See my operation gold digger link in my sig for a few pics of the graft.
I think shipping a piece that big would be salty.

That would be the critter. Somewhere around here I have a picture, but if I cant dig it up, I'll go out and take another in the light

 

[89ford]

ok any thing that will help and I'm not much of a cutter or welder

I may have to wait till tomorrow to get out there to take a picture of that thing. It's been pouring rain all day today. My dang arthritis won't let me down the stairs with weather like this Man it sucks gettin' old.

 

[89ford]

ahh man I'm sorry to hear that I don't wanna think about getting old lol I'm only 18

Here's some pictures. There's a little light surface rust since I've left it sitting out in my yard ornament display , but nothing serious. I've got a sandblaster we could knock that off with real quick .

Ok so will it fit an 89? I'm not real sure just by lookin at it

Headlight buckets holes appear to be correct for the 87-91 era.

Do you actually know what it came off of?

Pretty sure it came off an 87. I got it when I bought an engine and tranny and rad all together that had been pulled I had some pics posted up before to ID the thing and the consensus was that this was for the 87-91. Naturally it wouldn't be a good spare for my 92
