found an 87 bird by my house for sale June 06, 2009, 12:17:01 AM Was riding around tonight and on the way home we spotted a white thunderbird on the side of the road for sale. Wasn't there when we left to go grab some food. So I pulled a u-turn to go back and check it out. Its an 87 model and has 8 holes on it, really nice gray interior, digital dash, column shifter. At this point I figure its a V6 but it was in pretty good shape so I took down the number. Its not far from my house at all but I have never seen it on the road. Its missing the molding on the drivers side fender. The one around the marker light. The car is in pretty good shape! I noticed it has square door locks on it and the drivers side has a keypad for an alarm. Why are the door locks different? Mine are round. Hopefully tommorrow I will get some pics and a price.

I am not sure on that though. You can unlock only the drivers door, or only the passenger or both I think...once you punch the code in the dr side unlocks, then if you press the 3/4 (2nd button) it unlocks the pass side, then/or if you press the 5/6 (3rd button) it pops the trunk.Not sure if the lighting package chanced for 87-8 but in 86 it did not include the cornering lights.

found an 87 bird by my house for sale Reply #8 – June 08, 2009, 03:44:51 PM I know its a 6 cylinder car. I talked to the owner and he wants $700 for it but when I saw it first it was dark so it did look really good but the front fenders both have damage but other than that the body is straight and the interior is in great shape!Pics are loading now...
