Newb and my 86 Bird December 18, 2013, 11:31:35 PM Hey there, my name is Tony. Picked up this 86 a couple months ago. It's a 3.8 with a 101,000 miles on it. I'm planning on swapping in the EFI 5.0L out of my Mustang. I hope to have it done for HRPT in 2015 but we'll see how that plan works out. Anyways, looks like a great board. It's hard to find tech info on these cars. Quote Selected

Newb and my 86 Bird Reply #4 – December 19, 2013, 01:57:34 PM Thanks guys. What is the deal with the vent windows? Was that an option each year from 83-86? Quote Selected
Newb and my 86 Bird Reply #6 – December 19, 2013, 03:38:20 PM Welcome, I started here little over a year ago, with a blank t-bird, now with the help of the members, she is almost ready to roll. Quote Selected
Newb and my 86 Bird Reply #7 – December 19, 2013, 03:51:38 PM I saw your build thread 83TB. You definitely put a lot of work into. It looks good. Quote Selected
Newb and my 86 Bird Reply #8 – December 19, 2013, 03:55:49 PM Slapped on some 10 holes I had laying around. I can't find one of my center caps though. I'll have to pick one up on CL or something. Quote Selected
Newb and my 86 Bird Reply #9 – December 19, 2013, 04:08:42 PM Wow that is a clean 4-eye. Love the period correct black paint w/red pinstripe! I'm not normally a fan, but the t-bird mudflaps are cool on that car for some reason! Quote Selected
Newb and my 86 Bird Reply #10 – December 19, 2013, 04:11:54 PM Thanks, I haven't decided if the mudflaps are staying or not. Probably hard to come by now. lol Quote Selected

Newb and my 86 Bird Reply #12 – December 19, 2013, 05:07:06 PM Very nice! Welcome aboard! Quote Selected
Newb and my 86 Bird Reply #13 – December 19, 2013, 05:11:42 PM I've only seen a handful of vent window cars in the last 10 years. 86 was the last year, and I would think the most rare. Quote Selected
Newb and my 86 Bird Reply #14 – December 19, 2013, 05:47:57 PM That car is beautiful, the paint looks amazing. Any interior shots? Does the hood have pinstripes on it as well? For technical information, check out coolcats.net or use the search function on this board. Quote Selected
