User Rides / It's been 30 years ago today....
sounds like lyrics to a song :hick: 

Actually it's been 30 years ago today I purchased my 83 TBird. And no I'm not that old, :D I bought it when I wa in my 20's.  How time flies!

Lounge / Brake line connection
Just came across this style connection on my 97 F150 brake lines. Looks to be double flare to 'bubble flare' or double inverted which I believe is also a metric fitting.

Is this common on the 'newer' vehicles'? 

Thanks!

Quote from: Thunder Chicken;414643
I think there are several reasons:

Fourth: Many long term members have simply either sold or lost interest in their old Thundercats. Hell, I'm an admin and haven't owned one for almost three years now (though this is only because the right one hasn't come along). People have gotten older, gotten busier, etc


Certainly older and busier but haven't lost interest in 29 years. :D

Had it out for Spring cleaning.... nothing fancy, all stock down to the fancy hubcaps. :hick:

General Fox T-Bird/Cougar Discussion / Marchal Prices
Wow....am I missing something about this Marchal pieces?  The price for the covers is in the ballpark but $374 for two lenses and reflectors?  Heck, I'll take my NOS lamps apart and sell the parts separately!

Maybe it's the boxes?  :hick:
