T-bird night

So I went to a local cruise night tonight because it was T-bird night. I actually remembered my camera for a show this year;). Enjoy.

Nice flock...I especially like the last one...the one with the flames. Any intel on it?

See that late 70's Thunderbird, the blue one with the grey top? My 1978 looked just like that!

Sold it a couple years ago to a guy who was going to fully restore it to its former glory.

I miss that car. What a beast. I just couldn't afford to feed it anymore and parts were getting scarce.

Nothing fancy. Just a 351 Cleveland with 4V heads, a nice cam, headers, 2.5" dual exhaust, and a built C4 with a stall converter. You could call it a sleeper ;).

Man,I love those "Flair" birds,I have got to get myself another one someday. Thanks for adding the interior shot,I think that's the best looking design of all cars.

A 4V 351C doesnt need to be fancy. I bet it moves pretty good.

Id drive a mini van if it had a 4V 351 in it.
