If you got such a great deal on it why don't you trade for an 87-93, 4 eye's tend to get a little more money sometimes if it's in decent condition.

By the time you end up spending all the money on the nose, hood, fenders, moldings, etc you could have just bought an 87+ Foxbody and not ruined another 4-eyed Fox (which are becoming increasingly hard to come by).

PLEASE do not swap the car...

There are a TON of '87-93 fox bodies out there and plenty of deals to be had. While you may not like the 4-eye there are plenty of us out there who do and investing time and money to ruin one doesn't make sense. Look around...you'll find an equally good deal on an '87 or '88, esp with the cost and hassle of the conversion factored in.

My question is, do I only need the hood, fenders, front bumper, and headlights, or do I need the 87-93 rad. support too?

Also, will the 87-93 dash bolt into an 86 without much modification (mainly wiring), or no?

you'll need a bumper cover support (the plastic one) and you wont need to chnge the rad support...if you want call me and come over and see my "mustangized" 82 capri....pm me for my number ...

any dash change sucks...............
