Re: 1988 Thunderbird Sport V8 HO For Sale Reply #4 – April 08, 2005, 01:51:58 AM [plug]I've driven this car and it is THE most solid and responsive fox car I have ever driven. It handled better than any of my cars with 15" or 16" rims and that was when it was rollin' on fo-teen inch steel dubs! The exhaust, all custom fabricated, sings a beautiful tune when you kick the skinny pedal down (it inspired me to do my t-bird much later). And... BONUS, um, power moonroof! The interior is every bit as good as it looks and the seats are comfy and supportive. Also, as Eric says, the brakes are fantastic, I could've sworn the pedal should go down further, but it must be the big drums out back that help. I dunno what else to say really, Eric has it all covered on the site. I just thought I'd add a second opinion (as if the E-man's word isn't good enough). [/plug] Quote Selected

I need to sell 2 of them....the light blue V6 Blue Max will be next. Once those 2 are gone, I'm down to the convertible and the V8 Blue Max. For the summer at least, I'll be driving the Max every day while hunting for something else. Pretty much know what I want, just have to find it. Once I get it, you'll know. :) Quote Selected

Re: 1988 Thunderbird Sport V8 HO For Sale Reply #8 – April 08, 2005, 11:57:34 AM I'd like to hear the story behind this:QuoteOn the rear quarter is a custom Speed Hole by Crystal™. Quote Selected
Re: 1988 Thunderbird Sport V8 HO For Sale Reply #9 – April 08, 2005, 01:10:13 PM Well, at CJ03 I drove the 'Bird to the hotel Sunday morning, and Crystal came over to see it. I was talking to her about how much rust there was, especially on the driver's side behind the wheel. It was at the point where the paint alone was keeping a hole from starting. And then she started pokin' at it with her little girl hands.Thus the custom Speed Hole by Crystal™. Quote Selected

If I lived closer, I was gonna sneak over and weld it up when nobody was looking, but a 10 hour drive is a bit much just to confuse somebody... :crazy: Quote Selected

Re: 1988 Thunderbird Sport V8 HO For Sale Reply #14 – August 24, 2005, 11:15:08 AM Oh, big time bump...Still got it, still need to get rid of it. Come on, folks...HO motor, custom 2.5" exhaust with a custom X-pipe (don't even need to remove it to drop the trans!), great brakes, fully loaded...yeah it's rusty, so what! Makes a good daily driver.Dropped to $900. Worth way more than that in parts alone. Please rescue this 'Birdie from my driveway. :) Quote Selected
