TCR Updates! April 11, 2006, 12:57:00 PM I'm supposed to be sleeping (10 hr road trip) but I was too anxious to see what the Bird would look like with the 5-lug conversion complete. The pics suck because of the narrow driveway and that was about as far as I was going to push it. Anyhoos here are the pics.All she needs is a few odds and ends and she'll be roadworthy. :D Quote Selected

TCR Updates! Reply #2 – April 11, 2006, 04:55:06 PM Looks good:D . Is that the lighter shade of Ford engine blue or the darker late sixties "corporate blue" on the intake and valve cover? BTW I thought that the TC was going to get junked because of that strut tower rust issue? Quote Selected

The TC is still destined to be junked and it's parts donated to either darkthunder or if by some stroke of luck, a rust free, ultra cheap 87-88 TC happens to cross my path in the mean time. :) Quote from: Tbird232ciVery sweet dude.My main suggestion, get a 3G alternator as soon as you can.

TCR Updates! Reply #5 – April 13, 2006, 12:55:07 AM You used the Duplicolor Ford Blue too didn't you?:D I used it because I like it better than the later dark Ford Blue. Quote Selected

TCR Updates! Reply #8 – May 06, 2006, 12:55:02 PM The Duplicolor Engine Enamel I've noticed shows up much lighter in pictures with a flash, but in reality it's the right shade of Dark Ford Blue. Quote Selected
