1983 Ford Thunderbird Std review from North America
"A tough old bird"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump, wiper motor, fresh air blower.
General comments?
It shakes, rattles, rolls and rusts but keeps on going. I'd hate to go any long distance in it but it's a great commuter car.
