I just bought a 94 GT withthe 5.0 liter in it and a 5 speed for under $1000 with extensive damage to the front clip. Engine is fine though. I am just wondering how difficult it is going to be to replace the whole front clip on this car. I know it is no easy task but for what I paid for this car I think it will be worth it. Also if anyone knows a good place to find a front clip for it that would be great. I am a new member so I am sure I will have more questions to come. I am really looking for the general how to in order to take the existing clip off. Havent done it before and so far al I see are welds that of course can be broken and the new clip re-welded on. So any info will be appreciated.

on the 94's the nose is usualy rivited in. So you can either use a Large rivit gun or use bolts.

I have to replace back to the strut towers. Today I took everything off back to the strut towers are far as frame and core support. So now I jut have to find the right front end to put on. I think when I weld the new front end on I am going to box the frame or about 6 inches on each side of the elds obviously for strength. I am also thinking about pulling the engine and doing some mods in that area.

So thank you for the advice. The front clip is riveted in and if that is the case I may just take the whole thing off after I pull the engine and replace it so that I can pass inspection after it is rebuilt. guess taking the shortcuts never pays off. I just ned a good place to find a front clip.... everyone seems the think the fron clip is the fenders, bumper and so forth and not the frame around the engine... oh well cant expect everyone to know everything.

I think ill add some pictures too so maybe people can see what I am working with... thanks
