Will run you about $$90 from a junkyard. -------------------- 1965 Shelby Cobra 1993 Cobra 2012 F150 Raptor 2020 GT500 Posts: 6523 | From: Orlando FL/Redding CA | Registered: Mar 2002  |  : PurpleNotch CAFords OG Member # 2902 posted                              I too can do a full conversion for you there are a few options if you end up needing a hand pm me thanks! ..Id go with john B first he rocks at that stuff but if hes unavailable hit me up!
