*drool*

Reminds me of why I bought mine in the first place. Mustangs may be fast, but T-Birds are *sharp* -- something that no Mustang can ever match.

This is cool...so many young people getting into these cars.  I'm 18 and 'inherited' my Tbird 2-3 years ago, but no serious work had been done until December.  Now it's just snowballin :D .  The H.O. conversion is just amazing...I've always dreamed about having a strong american V8.  Enough about me, your car looks awesome!  I bet it's really fun with the T5 too :) .

Thanks everyone!

Yes, I love the '80s T-Bird logos lol.

I do need to clean up the engine, although I can't hardly justify it when I will probably go to a 351W or 408 or even bigger in the near future.

And yes, the T-5 is amazing.  I can't imagine going back to A4LD!
