It will be that same year boxy body style. Not a scratch on it either. My camera doesnt do it justice. Check out the head lights on it too.
I think most people really don't pay a whole lot of attention to details when it comes to vehicles. Some see the headlights and either think something is different or pass it off as factory since it looks like it came that way.
This Tbird has a lot of 1st, I built it back in 95 the way it is now. It was sent to Steeda the week I bought it for their upgrades in 92. After that it stayed with their cam, MAF, UD pulleys, gears, shocks and wheels until the 95 Cobra R came out. Then I figured out how to install the Cobra R wheels, yes those are the real thing, along with the Cobra front brakes. I was the first to accomplish this back then, to which is now common practice. With the EEC Tuner back then I was able to get more power from it since there were no chips companies working with these 5.0 EECs. The car held 2 national speed records in factory stock and B stock classes later after some engine mods @ 139.6 and 182.9 mph. I also auto crossed it for a few years.
This was 1 of 2 only MN12s that was tested with the proto type Kenny Brown suspension braces before they went into production. This was also 1 of 2 only MN12s that was tested for the Addco sway bars before production.
All the proto type parts are still on the car today and I have papers and photos from the factories during installs.
As for the headlights, this is the first and still only Gen 1 MN12 (1989-1993) with Gen 3 MN12 (1996-1997) headlights. The whole front bumper cover is custom along with a custom hood. I assisted in the building of the hood and bumper while doing all the electrical and mounting modifications required to make this swap work. Many others have tried but so far I'm still the only one. There are a couple out there now that just replace the whole front clip (fenders, bumper and hood) to a 96/97 but none were able to keep the Gen 1 clip and do it.
Then there are simple things such as the real Saleen S351 wing that had to be modified to fit the deck lid. Now you can pick up a fake one with the pedestals already flat so they will fit on any car. Back when I did it these wings just came out and you could only get them from Saleen. Also that’s not a Photoshop of the blue neon light from the snorkels of the hood. That’s a real blown glass neon light custom built for that hood. Now days you can pick up neon kits at any auto parts store for a few bucks. They didn’t have kits like that back when I did it.
I was also the first to figure out how to install a 130 Amp 3G alt on one of these vehicles. Custom built my own bracket and now offer it on my website for others.
