1986 Ford Thunderbird 2 door Coupe review from North America
"It's aerodynamic, really comfortable, and fast on the highway :)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The main thing that goes wrong with my car is the fuel injection becoming dirty which makes the car stutter.
The serpentine belt comes loose every now and then.
General comments?
On my Tbird I had dual exhausts put on, then I added lakepipes (or sidepipes).
I put an Pontiac Sunfire spoiler on it which really has the perfect dimensions for the trunk.
I also had a 1970 Charger sport hoodscoop put on the car (not the sixpack).
I also painted the car with an emerald green with forest green ghost flames.
