Title: 83-86 Turbo Coupe media coverage - Auto Trader Classic
Post by: rodsterh on February 09, 2010, 09:24:40 PM
Latest issue of AutoTrader Classic.

On cover, Future Collectible Thunderbird under $3000.

Inside is a pretty good article and specs on the 83-86 Birds along with photos of a nice 83 Turbo Coupe. The Turbo Coupe Cougar is also mentioned.

Not online yet, but maybe it will be?

Has anyone else seen this?

X3....while I was there I browsed around and signed up.

Our insurance company classifies any vehicle 15 years or older as a "classic" and any car 25 and older as an antique.

We now have 4 antiques and 4 classics in our stable. :D

Hard to believe my 95 Mustang GT is a classic now.

I plan on getting classic tags for my 87 Bird. It's easy to do so here in Philadelphia as long as the car can pass for somewhat stock looking. I don't know what it's like in other areas though.

I also have a 1977 Toyota Celica GT Coupe that I got antique tags and insurance for. I had to take off the previous owner's alloy wheels and bolt on some stock wheels. I took a few more things off to make it look like a stock car. Got the antique tag within a week of sending in the photos and application.

Don't know if that's true, lots of good cars to be had for under $3000.  I seem to recall a unique color 83 TC for sale locally for $700 not too long ago! :hick:
