How many parts are you collecting? What kind of car are you building?

I have a 351w,but I was thinking about the parts off of this 86 gt if they would work.It has everyhting except a few body panels and so I wanted to see if it was useable or not.I am looking to build either the ff cobra or either a pacific roadster cobra

I believe the FFR kit requires a donor from 1987 to 1993. It seems like some people are steering away from the donor route, since they end up replacing most of the donor parts anyway and it costs more in the end.

BTW - Just go for the complete FFR kit. $19,900

So basically,The car is useless.I was hoping that I could get a good rear end out of it and suspension parts off of it.I was considering buying some things at the pull a part yard in Columbia,SC and some parts I would buy new.Just wasnt sure b/c a guy offered the car to me today and I wasnt sure if it would work or not.
