93-98 front end conversion

Now you guys are all wondering why I don't just buy a newer car, well I aint got time/money/insurance for that.

Can the 98 front end bolt onto the 93?

Re: 93-98 front end conversion

I remeber seeing for sale the front-end conversion kit someone, but it is mad expensive. I can't remember how much, but in excess of 1500 or 2000 definitely. Probably more. Easiest would be to find a wreck hit in the back, and then take the front. I was thinking of doing this conversion and yes... it can be done.

Re: 93-98 front end conversion

just by surfing ebay i've seen fenders for around $60 each,bumper cover around $100,headlights $100-$180,but the hood is gonna be the expensive part. i want a warbird for myself.about $600 or more.all parts are new.plus brackets,headlight mounting panel,wiring harness,parking lights,fender brackets.i think but i'm not sure that you have to change the radiator support.
