1987 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe review from North America
"Better get one while they are still around"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump, one injector, front spindles, replaced exhaust system with stainless steel, heater core.
General comments?
What has gone wrong on this car is no more than normal wear. It is without a doubt one of the most fun cars that I have ever owned and I have owned quite a few performance Fords. This was one of the most advanced cars ever built and there were bound to be a few quirks. It is a highly tuned automobile and like cars of this type, it needs TLC. If the engine ever goes South, I will be dropping in a 302.
