A co-worker of mine's dad purchased some parts from this company, they sell frontend and rear end parts to convert a V6 into a GT appearance wise, ie fog lights, dual exhaust.

An exapmle of prices are below:
- frontend kit, fog lights, bumper, grill for $350
- exhaust $40

I'll post pictures of his dad's car tomarrow.

Here is the companies information
Casco's Crash Parts

Here is a pic of one of their kits

It's actually "Casco's", the parts are takeoffs from GTs that have been converted into Saleens. The guy mainly sells through eBay. I have been trying to get ahold of him for days to ask about a rear GT valance, but he doesn't return calls or emails, or answer his phone. Maybe he's gone or something. I did buy some GT mufflers from him off of eBay, he shipped those quickly.

Here are the pics of my coworker's dad's V6. It looks pretty nice. He also has the GT "pony" cloth interior.

And here I was thinking I was the only one who couldn't get a reply from this guy! :bang: Actually I emailed him for the third (?) time last night and was pleasantly surprised to find a response in my inbox this morning.

If you guys don't mind me asking, how much did he charge you for shipping (I only inquired about the GT front bumper & grille). I feel like $350 for just those two pieces is a little steep... as I mentioned to Mike, that's almost retail for a brand new bumper!

Unless he magically decides to have mercy on a dirt poor wage slave and lower the price, I guess I'll continue in my quest to find a kind local redfire GT owner. Anyone in the tristate area looking to get rid of their old front bumper??

Thanks, I have been in touch with Mike Castelnero from Casco, and he has offered me a fair price for just the bumper alone. However I am one of those poor slobs who makes $8/hr and has to live on it and mod my car on it. Not easy, I assure you. ;-) I was just hoping for a local GT big brother/sister to help me out before I commit so much money.
