This car is the first Thunderbird that I bought, I bought it in Pensylvania1987 when I was in USA for vacation with some friends. We saw it parkedoutside in a garden when we were on our way to check out a Corvette wefound in a magazine. My friend bought the Corvette and on our way backto Harrisburg we looked at the car and the next day I bought the car (23rdof June 1987).
I bought it of Stephen E Miller at Rd1, Saxton, Pa 16678 .He hadbought it without engine sometime between 1970 and 1972. If anybody seesthis and knows him please inform me so I can send photos to him!!!!
It was restored 1977 and the original engine that was missing wasreplaced with a 390" from a 1961 Tbird. It has a four barrel Holley carb.I would like to trade this engine against an original Lincoln 430". Cassienumber: OY71J126836, Color code R (Moroccan Ivory)
The car is equiped with black leather seats (elecric on driversside), A/C Power steering, Power brakes, Power windows, tinted windowsand radio.

On the 29:th of August 1997 the car got its original paint back. Irepainted it after a total strip of paint. (It was to much old paint onit to take one more repaint). The original paint is Moroccan Ivory. Nowthe job with reinstalling all crome and things will take place. Herecomes some new pictures on my coupe´!!!
After repainting, towed to it'snew winter storage.
(Homemade towbar, a bit too long-bolted in the bumper fittings)


Now it's only the re installation of all chrome left.
