    Nobody makes them Mike. A lot of the guys have bought Mustang pans and modified them. About the only other option is a donor car. How does the rest of the car look?

    There is a thread on the subject that shows you how to do it. Pretty easy....once you figure it out.

    as for a donor car...does it have to be another 2 door or will a 4 door work?

    A 4 dr car has a longer wheelbase so to keep from having to modify them I'd look for a 2 dr and if you wanna keep it as original as possible make it a 75 up. They have a hump for the catalytic converter.

    Ray, soooo....does this mean that most all the parts are interchangeable from 75-77? I figure if I am going to get a donor car I might as well be able to use as much as possible...
