Finally found....
Some nice door panels for the '83 TX car. '83 was a one-year only for this style of door panel, as the '82 panels were different and black was dropped by Ford for '84. Same goes for the Walnut ones on the '83 CSP car, but I actually found a spare set for the '83 CSP car awhile back, which has nice, original panels in it anyway. Walnut is much rarer than black, according to the production stats Stew Jones put out, so go figure. Anyhow, I was very lucky to find these.

Good deal. Post up some pics of the '83 TX or e-mail them to me. I've only seen the front.

You aren't missing much....it's the roughest car I have. Here is a rear shot...took these when I replaced the damaged steering column and broken ignition switch.

The rotted rear package tray(and rear seat)...you can see the holes where the PAR36 halogens were mounted.

One more...I had the dash torn apart and this was just before I pulled the column. It's now back together with the correct steering wheel in it (just so I can move it). You can also see how bad the drivers door panel is warped. It's was actually warped much worse than the pic shows. I saved it to transfer the shotgun rack mounting points over, but it's not currently in the car.
You can also see the holes TX drilled into the console delete for switches for the e-equipment. The seat is a temp...that I will have recovered when I do the rest of them. The original had been tossed and replaced with a plastic racing seat.
