Question Will any exterior parts from an 83-88 Tbird fit a Fox mustang ?

i have a strange question. i'm curious if the 83-88 thunderbirds extrior parts will bolt up with a 79-93 mustang. im only curious about the front end. like, the fenders, hood, front bumper cover.i was wondering if it was possible to swap the front off of a t bird and put it on a stang or vice versa. will the edge of the fender line up with the front of the door? i know most of the motor, and suspension bolt up, but what about the front? and how about door panels? i think t birds have longer doors. it looks like the t bird nose is longer, but theres nothing behind the front bumper, its just wasted space. let me know what ya think. has anyone tried it?

How much money you got? Anything will "fit" with enough money thrown at it.

Ive been looking at some old t bird pics that I have and I dont think the hood will fit and the rest of the body is too long or wide. Drive the tbird until the wheels fall off.

thank you for doing some research! if anything, the t bird body is wider. the extra nose length on the t bird was for cosmetic purposes only. if you pop the hood, there is a lot of empty space behind the bumper/in front of the radiator. no one knows for sure, huh?
