    BODY MODS (old skool style)

    Depending on what color you paint it, some wide whites would look cool on it too. Yeah, I know all too well about emission laws. They put to rest a lot of good ideas/prjcts. :thumbdwn: And, yes I would call it a 'sedan delivery', kinda like the ol' Falcon couriers. :smoke: yeah?

    XLT w/fogs Front bumper & cover to '98 Chrome bumper & valance w/fogs. What all do I need to save from the 2K to put on the '98 (brackets, braces etc.). Is there a exploded view (diagram) to compare the 2? The '98 looks so clean to me. If my 2K was Black I wouldn't trade as it blends in well...
