Thats how I am, I have always felt that all fox thunderbirds looked like an owl with its eyes too far apart. Like it was semi retarded or something, I look at them waitin for them to start twitching. :D

The only one I would even waste my time on are the 94-95 SC's...

Yah I agree with both you guys... I'm a cougar person... that's why I own a cougar and not a bird. Both have their pluses and downfalls but what seals it for me is the rear windows and roof lines.
