1988 5.0L 5 Speed Thunderbird November 03, 2006, 06:40:55 PM Must sell, got too many projects on the go.You guys know the car, has a RAM HD clutch, BBK adjustable cable and quadrant, mustang headers and complete duals, with Cherry bomb Glass paks. (Sounds really tough, can get a video of it tomorrow) BRAND NEW $1000 pioneer CD player/amp/subs.The bearings are shot in the motor, (my stupidity/fault) but still runs fine and has lots of power. (just knocks like hell) Will throw in a complete and excellent running 5.0L HO (out of a 91 cougar). The only reason I am selling it instead of swapping it myself, is because it is getting too cold to work on it now, and I dont have a decent garage to keep me warm.Asking $1800 with stereo or $1300 without.click here for picsclick here for a quick video of when it first firred Had an exhaust leak at the headers that has since been fixed.

1988 5.0L 5 Speed Thunderbird Reply #13 – November 19, 2006, 09:40:26 AM Not parting. I just put the motor and tranny in about a month ago. If the T5 does come out again, it is to replace the 5.0L with a HO motor. Quote Selected
