 You're right-I dont think I would have the heart to drive that thing if I had it.

IMO that is the Thunderbird that should have been. And it looks like he did his best to document it as a dealer install so it's as close to factory as possible. If I had the money I would drive it on nice days. It's a lot more likely that I would probably recreate it at some point using a 5.0 Sport instead of a TC. :hick:

He'll never get what he wants for it. Thats the sad part. It's a beautiful car, but $20k is not reasonable this day and age. Is it worth it to guys like us, maybe...but would we pay that, probly not.


If I had tons of money to blow, I'd probly give it a good home. For $20k, there are a lot of other rides that would be higher on the list. Thats just me.

now I thought there was a big huge conversation about this before. If I remember correctly that it was said that the thin and tall ones were not on any specific years that they were on.

Nice 84 bird!!! To bad it looks like it got rear ended!
