There was one of those at the Summer Nationals, Green Hill Park, Worcester mass, this year. I wasn't too fond of it.

MN-12s ran 5x108 bolt patterns. Same as some FWD Fords. Its easy to swap an MN-12 to 5x114.3(4.5) 5lug though. Though Mustang stuff on and there you go.

If it wasnt converted then those rims would be 5x108 and would fit my SHO

Mid-size North America Series 12. It's a completely different chassis than the fox birds.

There was a red 1988 "EasyRod" T-Bird at the Columbus swap meet a few weeks ago. Followed the guy's car in when we were paying for parking. We gave it a glance-over but obviously only from a side view.

I love it when old guys think their Frankenstein cars are "fancy". :D

Back in their day they where. The look of disappointment on my Grandpas face when he found out he couldn't get whitewalls for his Toyota was priceless. Somethings never change.

I saw one of those at Back To The 50's at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds in June. The cut off year is 1964, so that means they registered it as a 1949 or a 1950 and someone let them in. I guess if you allow glass "1932" Fords manufactured in 2008 to attend, you have to allow "1949" T-Birds to attend too....
