You have a different spoiler tho- and looks like 15" wheels?

I have the hard-as-hell to find mini-wing. ended up finding it in junkyard near Waco, as it was sans spoiler when i bought the car.
Even had one guy at a junkyard tell me I was lying, that there were only 2 styles for a hardtop...I pretty much told him to farg off, b/c i had pictures and you could see the footprints from where the spoiler had been, so i knew i wasn't crazy.

I did end up with the rear decklid and three piece spoiler from the RS, so when I feel like drilling holes in my baby, I'll prolly switch it over- but I hope to paint it first, even tho teal and gray aren't too bad of a combo...

(And i've only had my car for 4 years- about a month before i joined here.)

LOL...
hmm...

-dome light and rear springs off a '92 b4c (totalled)
-rear deck spoiler and hatch motor cover from 88 in a junkyard
near Waco.
-nose and hood from 82 z28 (rolling chassis)
-steering wheel from 1979 Monza (WAY better than factory)
-wheels from somewhere
-more wheels
-a/c, dashpad, door sills from 92 rs
-diff and discs from A-sedan in Ga, I think...

the list is so long i can't remember anymore...

and coming soon:
-t5 and maybe spoiler from said disassembled 92 rs.

And it'll go in as soon as it gets back from the shop and i have amassed replacement parts. :P

Your diff is a bilmar built aussie 9bolt. It was raced in the Dallas Grand Prix in 1993 or 1994. It was a backup ASedan unit.

Your AL driveshaft came from an 01 Trans Am.

Your cooling fan switch came from a McDonnell F-101B Voodoo Fighter-Interceptor built in late 1959 (even older than ME!).

That's all I can think of off the top of my head...
