sarjxxx, Look what I Found on My 'underbird Reply #6 – November 03, 2010, 04:52:03 PM Exact same part on my '97 Cougar. It's actually a Ford of Australia part...IIRC it even says "Australia" molded into the CHMSL lens. (Don't quote me on this...I'm not at home right now and don't have it handy to look at! ) Quote Selected

Is it like "oonderbird" or just thunderbird without the "th"?It always reminded me of where I park when I'm out in public ---- 'cause it seems like when I come back to my car, it's always been "under a bird."

No offense dude, but I don't think I get the name. Is it like "oonderbird" or just thunderbird without the "th"?It's Under-bird, like an underdog, the one that nobody expects to win, but comes out on top.I stole the idea from the late Alan Kulwicki ....Quotehttp://www.underbird.comAlan drove the Hooters sponsored #008 car in the Atlanta "HOOTERS 500" 1992 season finale. Since Alan considered himself the underdog coming into this race he asked special permission from Ford, and he was allowed to drop the "T H" from THUNDERBIRD...and the car became the "UNDERBIRD" for this one race. He replaced the "T H" with a Mighty Mouse Mascot Patch, and drove the race to a 2nd Place finish ... Bill Elliott won the race but, by leading the most laps Alan clinched the 1992 WINSTON CUP CHAMPIONSHIP!Quotehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_KulwickiThe 1992 Hooters 500, the final race of the 1992 season, is considered one of the most eventful races in NASCAR history. ... Six drivers were close enough in the points standings to win the championship that day. Allison led second-place Kulwicki by 30 points, Bill Elliott by 40, Harry Gant by 97, and Kyle Petty by 98 and needed to finish sixth or better to clinch the championship. Kulwicki received approval from NASCAR and Ford to change the "Thunderbird" lettering on his bumper for the race to "Underbird" because he felt like the underdog in the contention for the championship.And my avatar is what Alan replaced the T H with during the '92 Atlanta fall race.

sarjxxx, Look what I Found on My 'underbird Reply #11 – November 04, 2010, 06:31:26 AM I always wished my 95 had one. I really like spoilers, I even put one on my Fusion. Of course with it you can't see the end of the trunk without it so it made it very hard to judge. Quote Selected
