Must be something in the air... June 03, 2011, 06:35:05 PM I can usually go years without seeing a Fox thundercat locally. Yesterday on the way home I followed an '87 anniversary Cougar for about 8 miles. That was a rare treat. Then today, I was road testing a car for work and passed a nice 87-88 TC on the highway. Two Thundercat sightings in two days!Can't wait to get into another one... Quote Selected
Must be something in the air... Reply #1 – June 03, 2011, 06:43:55 PM Other than my Sport, that's two more sightings than I've seen all year around here.....really. Quote Selected
Must be something in the air... Reply #2 – June 03, 2011, 06:53:25 PM there are a few around here, but if I really want to see one I just go in the back yard or garage Quote Selected
Must be something in the air... Reply #3 – June 03, 2011, 09:39:42 PM I finally met the guy here in town who own's a black TC and invited him over here. Other than that there are two other foxes that I know of in my area... an white 87/88 LX and a sweet black 4-eyed bird. I've seen those two around town a few times in the last couple years but I have yet to be able to corner them lol. I haven't seen any others. Quote Selected
Must be something in the air... Reply #4 – June 03, 2011, 10:09:16 PM I have been seeing a lot of them around here in the past 3 or 4 months. Lots. The sad part is of course they weren't being taken care of.... But I did see a nice 87/88 TC in a Hardees parking lot that was in really nice shape, I see it there often now, must be someone's who works there. Quote Selected
Must be something in the air... Reply #5 – June 03, 2011, 11:13:16 PM I saw an 87/88 bird parked at Walmart, and possibly the same one driving through town the day before yesterday. That's about it though, and I don't think I've ever seen another 4 eye around here. Quote Selected
Must be something in the air... Reply #6 – June 03, 2011, 11:53:23 PM I ran across a kid that's got an 87/8 TC. We talked for a bit about his car & I gave him a card for the forum. I also let him know about Dyno Day 2, coming up, as well.There's another Fox 'bird I see parked, locally & one I see a lot, in Pulaski, TN, when I go there. As far as Cougars, haven't see any Foxes around. Quote Selected
Must be something in the air... Reply #7 – June 04, 2011, 08:20:01 AM There is a 87-88 cougar with a 4 eye front end running around my town. The thing's pretty thrashed though. Other than that a sighting is pretty rare. Its getting to the point where younger people don't even know what these cars are. I did have two high school boys ask me if I had a "5-oh" in my car at a gas station the other day, so that gave me hope that this younger generation isnt all about rice burners. lol. Quote Selected
Must be something in the air... Reply #8 – June 04, 2011, 12:39:38 PM There's a guy about 5 blocks from where I work that has a dark blue 88 T-bird Sport in pretty decent shape. That's the only other Fox T-bird/Cougar I see in the area besides mine. Quote Selected
Must be something in the air... Reply #9 – June 04, 2011, 03:56:00 PM I don't see too many since I moved, but in my old town there was at least 10 different ones still on the road. I had a better view than most though, since I spent all day driving around town for my job. Quote Selected

So there aren't many left anymore...:( Quote Selected

It used to belong to a member here (87anniv) but he sold it just before I sold mine. He'd probably have had kittens if he knew it was being winter driven. Quote Selected
