Hi, I am Jerry from Pensacola, Fl.  I just was given a 83 thunderbird from a friend that got burned out on the project.  The car does not have a motor or tranny right now, looking to do a 5.0 mustang drive train with A/C install.  The car has molded in ground effects and grill insert and french in antenna.  The car does have 9in rear end with rear disc brakes.  Also came with the car are cyberdyne digital gauge, MSD 6AL box with blaster coil, march pulley kit.

You have the fairly rare Ford Motorsport Grill, and would guess you have the complete aero kit which in opinion is the nicest one they made. (from Ford).  Looks like a very nice project! Keep us updated on your progress.

4-eyes are the ones to have.  Anyone who says otherwise is just sad because they don't have one themselves.
