i'm trying to find a pic of Tim Allen's old white Fox mustang (aka: Casper) ... i'm especially looking for a pic of the front end b/c if anyof you remember that car it had the Sanja front headlight conversion that used t-bird headlights ..

i've tried to track down the company Sanja Performance .. but i think they might be out of business ...

i dunno ... i've always liked it. i think it looks good on the hatches, but i'm sure it would look like poo on a coupe LOL .... still i really think it cleans up the front end of the mustang a lot, while still retaining a "ford" look ... (ie: the t-bird) ...

cervinis sells the Saleen body kit,

a good body shop should be able to do something with the lights if you want.
or just put 1 piece headlights for the Fox on there, get you really close.

nicest one I've seen that comes close to what you want

yeah i pretty much think that the whole point of that conversion was less about looks and mostly about function to aid the fox's aerodynamics ...
