It's all covered up in the garage for the winter!
I try & take it out for a short drive about once a month
if I can catch the roads absolutely salt-free. That's
really hard to do here in Columbus, Ohio!!:(
I really HATE winter & more so every year.

Mine will be away real soon too. We had a freak 6" storm early, but nothing since. Yours is definately on my top 5 list!

Jim: I still have my 88 "SUPER COUPE" available. Only thing is it's got RED interior.
I did everything over on this car over the years, it runs great, looks great, runs like a champ, pulls like crazy.
I'm only selling my baby due to a new toy I purchased.

Great looking car! I might have a hard time getting past the red. It makes me miss my old car even more and makes me sick to think of how far along it was....

I was looking through all my old posts and I am kicking myself even more for selling my 87. I had almost everything to put it together.

I like the idea and look of this: http://www.racingjunk.com/Thunderbird/2443724/Pro-Street-Mod-Motor-Thunderbird-with-6-speed.html

I see way too many things that I wouldn't be happy with and that's just from the pictures. Who knows what I would see in person. Local too...bummer.

You know, the only thing stopping me from buying this car is money. And he's not far away from me either.

I picked up a 2003 10th anniversary Cobra convertible with 10,000 miles. They only made 2003 10th anniversary Cobra's, available in three colors, Black, Silver and Torch Red (mine) available as hardtops or convertibles. Mine is 1 of 369 made in it's configuration. I got all the dospoogeentation with it, owners goodies etc.
Terminators are cool, but I have to say, my Bird with the Vortech is more of an animal than my unmodified Cobra. I'll miss the Bird when she goes since I put so much time and effort into building it, but it's time to move on.

Hey Thundr306,I have an'88 Turbo Coupe,I bought a complete'93 Mustang and did the 5.0 swap.It has the Mustang 5 speed,Steeda clutch quadrant,king cobra clutch,shorty headers BBK H pipe brand new 3 row radiator air pump eliminated etc.It's gone less than 500 miles since the swap,but it runs nice.This was my ongoing little project and I really don't want to sell but I have some bad cirspoogestances goin' on here so I'm considering selling.I didn't post before because it has red cloth interior,don't know how big a problem that is for you.I'm a bit North of you(near Tamaqua ).It's garaged for winter and sorry but I have no pics to post now.Just figured I'd see if you're interested.Thanks!

Close to me, but I really think I am going to pass on anything with red interior unless the rest of the car is really, really close to what I want. If your car is really clean, send me a pm when you get some pictures of it.

If I had the space at the time I would have bought it all from you and kept it until you wanted it back. :hick:

The owner of the pro-street modular car send me a decent price to buy it, but I think there are too many things that I am unsure about or just don't like.
