Well I just sold my 87 Tbird a few weeks ago. While searching market place late a few nights ago( first mistake, lol) I stumbled across a 4 eye bird. (This one is kinda special....I will leave it at that for now)My first bird was a 4 eye and it was always the one I regretted selling. Anyway it’s a 3 owner, low mileage 85 with V8. I’m in talks with the guy now ( he’s elderly and doesn’t drive the car anymore) . I will update in a few weeks if all goes well with the deal.
Heh.
Nope, just wanted something different.
I was wondering when someone was going to ask about those.
Those are 13" Brembos from an 04-09 Volvo S60/V70R. That configuration is being adapted for my '97 850 Turbo. (I also have a set of the fronts for my Volvo 240 project).
Doing some layout for an adapter.
Never seen these before. They look pretty nice
You bet. My thinking is it just keeps the subframe connector from deflecting thus stiffening the car a little more by tying it to the rear of the front subframe.
Did you give any thought to putting in upper subframes like the ones Griggs Racing has? I have them in both my Fox body cars and that is all the black paint you see on the bottom of the floor pan along the front subframe and around the bulk heads of the rear subframes from the welding burning the paint off. I have the drawings for those as well.
I've always loved the Mark VII's, especially the LSC Special Edition ones. If I had the garage space, one would be parked next to my T-bird I recently drooled over this one....https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1991-lincoln-mark-vii-3/
The Special Editions were made in low volume and I believe will be collector cars someday.....it just may take another 20 years for that to happen.
