I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Looks almost exactly like my Thunderbird!  Mine has the 15" 10 hole wheels and no big dents though.  If you could get that car for $500 - $600 I say pull the trigger.

I picked it up for $520 on new years.

Cant drive it till the dmv opens tomorrow. Only really issues so far is a cracked front turn signal lense and a loose ignition switch, plus the passenger window is a bit loose in the tracks.

Had a full service history going back about 5 years with a older car fax. 134k miles. Nothing too fancy.
