Well push has come to shove. Found another TC (my barn find) that I want more than my current one. Catch is I cant swing having to at this point and time, so I have to do this. 1988 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, still retains the 2.3T motor, was an auto - swapped to a 5 speed. Only part of the swap that doesnt work is the neutral safety switch/clutch switch. Still has the Autos 3.73 rear gears, and the 2 wheel peel still works great!! Most if not all the mods are in my sig. Car runs great and would be a good project for someone. I do have other parts that will go along if the buyer so wishes, rust free trunk lid, Full working ABS setup. The front sheet metal was replaced with rust free stuff last year and in the process I added the cornering lights and they are functional as ford intended
Now for the bad:
Quarter panels from top of wheel wells down need work(midwest car), but is more than savable
The PRC shocks/struts are long gone and have been replaced with regulars
Windshield has a crack
Typical 25 year old interior
Moonroof needs replaced
Id like to get $2000 or best offer, Ill work with someone if they are serious about buying. Just trying to break even on it.

That front end looks familiar :hick:
Just curious. What kind of wheels are those? I like them.
Good luck with the sale.
Gee I wonder why!! LOL That was a good trip down there. Glad I made it!!!
Oh something I forgot in the original post the Coopers on it in the picture are long gone and have been replaced with 4 new Uniroyals. The taillights are tinted also
They are Enkei wheels, I have no clue on a style/model though. Ive searched high and low to find out more about them with no luck. Im assuming they are an early 90's rim. Its the one thing on the car that if some one wanted something different on it I would have no problems with it as I love the rims to!!!
Bumping this up, willing to deal guys!!!
bumping this up!!
I'm motivated to get this sold, let's make a deal.
I'll talk to my wife but I doubt she'll say yes as she's looking to leave me lol
Tell her your gonna do a his and hers set!!!
She said no... it.
pm sent
Replied back bud!!
Back to the top!!!! Ill let it go for $1800 if someone buys it soon!!!
I will be sending text message to you
Hopefully good news text message. Getting tired of the tire kickers around here!!!!
Sold to My10-80's son, who will be continuing what I started with it. They will be taking delivery in about a week and a half. Hopefully John can get his son to sign up here so the progress will continue to be seen. As for me, hopefully be getting the Barn Find TC soon now!!!
Dad dint have to ask for me to sign up but yes i will be keeping posted on what i do with the car.
Cool, the birds been good to me. Glad to see you joined!!
Well I'm hopen after this winter the bird will look like it just rolled off the show room floor.
If it all works out the way you plan Ill make sure to let you and your dad know about shows and cruises up my way. I actually have the same hope for my new one. Money permitting it should be.
That's his problem as well. Big plans on a short budget. May not be showroom new by spring, but I'm sure it will look much different. I'm going to have him start his own thread though so to keep the project separate. See you later today.
Yep always is!! I'm gonna be calling in all my hookups to attempt to accomplish my plans. I've got my powder coaters card for you guys to. Looking forward to this afternoon!!!
