July 25, 2008, 09:30:41 PM I have 88 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe Medium Red w/ a5-speed manual Trans paid $1000.00 for it and it looks like but runs great and also has a few extra stuff done to it. Motor Mods- Top End Rebulid w/ Port and Polised Head and New Turbo they were done around a year ago and the car sat for 9 months so it doesn't have much miles on the rebuild cams and 30# valves and RollerRocker Arms and Light Weight Aluminum Radiator done around 2500 miles ago, Tinted Windows. Stero system- Premier sond system, Kenwood CD Player and 6 Pioneer speakers I believe is what they are.Interior Factory Red Velvor seats, Electronic Climante Control All power incluing seats.

I new here and heres my ride. Reply #11 – July 29, 2008, 02:00:07 AM 1st the spoiler looks goodThis is what you should do but a picture is worth a 1000 words just remeber your not the 1st one of thinking about some GT500 wheels.The black and chromes are $135 each at Discount stock offset is 25 make sure to get the 24mm offsetsAlso heres a link to a nice 5 lug swap kit with 31 spline axles for $400 http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/iwwida.pvx?;item?item_no=LRS-4234B-K%20%20%20%201&comp=LRSLast of all if you get the rims i would paint the car all Black with 2 red racing stripes like the 07 Redline GT500s Concepts they where $1500 more over the Base GT500s.Note it is not my car at all and is a hell of a nice ride for the price and within a year or less will look great. 2nd of all not everyone likes my ideas But welcome to the site and this is not the only way to fix up the car its just what i would do and thats all.The headlights sound like a nice idea and i would like to see how they turn out.
