General Fox T-Bird/Cougar Discussion / Not the BEST christmas in the world..... but it could have been much worse.
Haha I'm a body man. But if it were a customer I'd decline it. It's all wrapped up back there uber the fender well pretty bad, the wheel bearings are going outtta the frontright and the front bumper and light assembly is demolished. I found someone who offered me 400. If I can't get 5 I'll take it. I'm sorry to say that thirds won't be out of my life just yet, I jus won't own one. I'm switching to mustang. 1991 gt 5.0 5 speed.

Oh trust me no disrespect to the engine, I just thought that was odd for a V8 even for this year. What are some good performance mods for this engine?

 
lol you definately came to the right website this IS the site when it comes to these cars, you should go with better rear end, H.O. swap and i PROMISE there wont be much a grand am could do against it.....except maybe park easier.

The Bird is all but totaled. Icy roads suck. and I almost cried in front of my brother. lol.

About 1:00 today (christmas day) I was driving having a good time with family and on my way home from eating at my grandparents house when i slide out of control and over-corrected to keep from ditching it, but in the process i mis-judged the road and how slick it was and ended up spinning a few times for what i think the officer said was 324ft, hitting only a curb, mailbox, telephone box, and slowly bumping into a telephone pole itself. The engine is fine except for i think there could be a slight crease in the oil pan.

but the body is bad.... really bad.

list of things:
Middle parking lights busted,
Grill gone,
front right pony rim destroyed,
windshield is spider-webbed from my bro's head,-- he's fine we walked away without a scratch...yeah...we're that beast haha.
The telephone box completely demolished my driver's side 1/4 right behind the drivers door.... its caved horribly.
and the side window right above the 1/4 is busted but surprisingly straight.
of course, the front right side where the wheel was busted, the tie rod end is shot.



most of it is easy fixes except for the 1/4 panel...... i hate that. I honestly dont believe its fixable....

All in all, I may have lost my baby, but the wellfare of me and my bro were way more important and although I hate seeing my car a wreck like it is, im glad we are OK and hope everyone had a great christmas.

Body/Appearance/Interior / Quick Hood question
I also just thought, when ever u buy a all-pin-on hood, where do u install the other two, the far outside or right at the cowl? This will be the second purchase in the list. So I'll have about two weeks the think this thru and do research on feedback.

Body/Appearance/Interior / Quick Hood question
well i can handle that as long as its too big, if its too small i could mold my own but i hate fiberglass work, the last time i did it, it took me a week and i had to fiberglass the whole bottom of a cab of a 67 stang. i was afraid the dude was gunna fall through going down the road lol.

The first video i took was the "Thunderbird Test" and in this the tach works like it is supposed to.

Then in the next video on the way home it acts up and to my luck i caught it on camera lol. any reasons why itd stall out like that?



P.S. Yes yes i know my windshield and dash are cracked to hell. lol

Body/Appearance/Interior / Quick Hood question
i think id rather have lift-offs cuz that sounds way easier and cooler lol, and i have an excuse not to pop my hood for anyone in town. " no way im not going thru that much trouble and i dont have anywhere to lay the hood" haha... btw for fiberglass hood that seems like a dang good deal, you think?
