1988 Ford Thunderbird Sport 5.0 review from North America
"This is the best year Thunderbird to ever be made"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had no problems with the car when I got it, but I have re-built the motor and added a supercharger and lots of other parts and I'm cranking out about 700 horse and almost as much torque.
General comments?
I own 3 of these cars and they are the best year Thunderbird ever made.
It is great to have a car that isn't considered to be powerful that will outrun Camaro's, Mustangs, and Firebird's.
I really loved building this car I recently outran a Viper with no problems.
I love these cars.
