good question.. it's been in my closet for months.. i didn't buy it online or anything, i know that much.. maybe you can find it online by search for 'revell basic builder 87 thunderbird turbo coupe model'.. i'm sure you're bound to find someone online selling them

something tells me i got it from a local place called bob's hobbies.. i don't remember being in there within the past 3 years though.. lol

i'm just pissed it didn't come with a non-TC header panel to make it a sport with a 5.0 and whatnot.. i hate these TC panels.. which reminds me, i need to post an ad to trade 2 of them lol

you know i had to go pick up a truck today for my buddy, one of his employee's wrecked a company truck yesterday morning and had to go pick it up this morning. Let's just say driving a 4dr f250 pulling a car trailer with the roads all iced up was fun lol.

2 key words there.. 4wd and 5spd.. the 4x4 S10's suck at towing, the 5spd doesn't help either lol my sonoma could tow some weight but it's an auto and a 98+ 4.3, not the original pre-98 slouch that was in it when it rolled off the lot in 94. whoever had the truck before my mom bought it was smart lol 200k later, the motor is still as strong as the day we got it and i've put it through pure hell to say the least
