1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe - Atlanta, Georgia Reply #1 – October 03, 2014, 10:44:32 PM Great looking car. I really like that color on final TCs.When I see a car like this that someone has spent countless hours & a lot of pesos in the restoration process, I am always made to wonder why would they want to sell it now?GLWSRon Quote Selected
1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe - Atlanta, Georgia Reply #2 – October 04, 2014, 08:39:07 AM Hello, Thanks for the complements... You are right, we did spend countless hours working on this car. I have 2 young sons that want to be engineers so this is what we enjoy doing. But more so, we got this car from a good friend who had it since new and it had been sitting in his garage for many years and was one phone call away from either the junk yard or charity donation. The fate of the car was pretty clear and given it was a one owner with all the documentation and it's history we wanted to do what we can to save it. So this became my younger son't first car. We did almost all the work at home learning from the forums and from friends and some had to be done at a shop as we don't have a lift or paint booth. But it was a great learning experience. Now we have more cars than we have room for and some cirspoogestances have changed where we may not be able to keep driving the car as much. So it's much better to let it go on to a new home where we hope it will be used and enjoyed and cared for as it should be. Until it sells for what we need back out of it, we will certainly do our best to enjoy it! :) Quote Selected

1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe - Atlanta, Georgia Reply #7 – October 12, 2014, 08:12:20 PM yes, raven (charcoal/black) fades to blue over time. Blue also fades to blue (dark to lighter). It's one way you can tell how much solar activity the car has seen...Nice car, BTW. You've done a lot of work on it and it shows! Good luck with the sale.Daniel Quote Selected

1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe - Atlanta, Georgia Reply #11 – November 09, 2014, 11:49:04 AM This is a really nice car. I've been toying with getting another one, and except for the color, this is almost identical to my first Turbo Coupe.Man I miss that car. I sold it to buy a 1972 Cutlass 442, and while everyone else likes the 442 more, I don't. Quote Selected
