Nice!  Did you build it from a kit?  Not sure I've ever seen one like that...

Where did you find this one?

I would like to get one and paint it up like my sport. I have one painted up like my camaro and I have been playing with a hatchback mustang body trying to make some t-tops for it to look like my mustang.

I have an unbuilt 1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe from Revell that I have kept a long time! I may have to relive my model building days and finally follow through on it.

Yep it's built.
Has been built for some 15yrs now(way back before i even knew what a TC was lol).
I agree the pink is not the greatest but i'm not gonna disassemble it now,it still looks good.
I never knew(or gave a second thought)into the actuall working of the real car.
What if you ran two m90s setup like that,or even m112s, dam??????
interesting thought....

I've got 2 large scale Nascar T-bird models one box is unwrapped but not opened and the other I started to build back in 86 when I was in tech school for the Air Force. It's not finished and still packed. I'll get pics of the 1st one if anyone wants to see it. I had 3 1/24 scale Nascar T-Birds but I haven't been able to find but 1 of them and it needs repair.
