My First Car March 24, 2011, 08:40:25 PM This is my first car a 1987 3.8l v6 Thunderbird, I got her in 2006 (has been sitting in the garage for about 5 years) and now that I am close to getting my liscence, have now started working on her. Going to repaint in the near future to the original bottom Mettalic Bronze color. She has 28k miles on her and runs like a champ. A old couple used to drive this car and she was in some "Crashes" the whole front end was missing when I got her, the passanger rear end was smashed in, hood smashed, doors smashed. Took my whole summer to even out. The moment i saw this beauty (sorta) i fell in love with her LOL my dad offered me a Mercedes 300 DT but i turned it down. Was searching around for parts and came along this site, so i descided to make a account. Quote Selected
