Just bought it. It's sat for 7 years. The owner started the car every couple of months, drove it around town to keep the fluids circulated. Clean interior, small spot of clearcoat is starting to lift on the roof. Has sunroof.
5.0 runs good. Drained fluids, Rad was full of brown sludge. Took 6 flushes to get the water to run clean! Temp guage runs a little warm. Having problem with Alternator installation. I'll start a new thread about that for help.

Nice Thunderbird.
I think the LX cars are harder to find than Sports now.
