Did your username used to be blu84302?
Oh man...that Desert Tan Metallic '84TC. I should've kept that one.
Yeah my username was blu84302. I didn't put in a lot of effort to figuring out my old password. I was in a hurry to find some info and made a new account.
And Chuck, I still have hopes of one day going back to that color, but that is probably in 10 years. This summer it will be satin black.
I remember that yellow Cougar from years ago on here. I like the Thunderbird in satin black, probably because that's what color my car is, lol.
You know what's hilarious? You just came and got that T-bird header panel off me right? Well back in 2009 I came and got the header panel off that yellow cougar from you! We had already met and didn't know it, lol!
Here I thought I was meeting a new person from the forum, and it was somebody I had already met, I am just too senile to remember it! Until I saw the cars, that is... Isn't that pathetic, I remember cars more than people?
Well, it was nice to meet you for the first time, twice ;)
That's crazy, years apart and we both ended up needing header panels from each other. I knew your username looked familiar and thought it might be you, but I could have swore you lived in Columbus in 2009 and not out where you are at now. So I assumed it was a different person.
In 2009 I lived in Mansfield, which is still about an hour away from you. I drove all the way back up 71 with that header panel hanging out of the trunk, lol. It was worth it though, there wasn't another 4-eye cougar in any junk yard around here (and we have probably 10 junk yards!). There are hardly any foxes at all in these junk yards now, especially cat/birds. Sorry to thread-jack, but it was related to recognizing the car ;)
I love the flat black. Most likely because when I was a kid, well heck, it still is one of the badest planes of all time. The SR71 Black Bird, I LOVE that plane. Brute power baby. Super fast all engine! That plane was America kicking cold war arse at its best. And oh what color was it??? Flat Black. That and I love 85 Turbo Coupes, so the Black with the 85 nose is just Love to my eyes : )
Well I see it was a 84, but it looks the same as my beloved 1985 TC
