1977 Ford Thunderbird review from North America
"This is the most comfortable, powerful, smoothest riding car that Ford has made"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My timing chain went out at 146,000 miles.
There was rust around the back windows.
There are certain areas that need a little interior touch-up paint.
General comments?
I have fallen in love with this car. From my college town to my parents house is a 2 and 1/2 hour to 3 hour drive from which it burns a little over a quarter of a tank of gas.
However, gas is not so good in town.
