Wrong wheels to start with, didn't have 8" snowflkes in 77.... you really need to get the PHS documents if you want to know... or find your build sheet.. or both


Nice looking car, either way
1977 SE T/A
1974 T/A
1999 Mustang GT ragtop
2007 Ford F150 King Ranch
2000 Land Rover Disco I

The wheels are off of a 79-81 judging by how they are painted. And the first year for the WS6 was 1978, I love the car though.

i'd do a phs on it as it looks like it could be but also there are alot of incorrect things on it that make me think it's not one.

you have 15x8in snoflakes on the car currently for a 77 it should have 15x7in

They are easy to spot at a glance as the 8" rims have a noticeable lip.

From what I heard you can get the PHS for a Canadian car for free.  So it would be easy for you to check.
