This is my 1997 Ford thunderbird that i have absolutly fallen in love with! The only thing iv done to it so far is the stickers, the rear window louver, and a pioneer/JL audio system, tinted rear tail lights, clear headlight corners, ram air hood, hood pins,. Planing on getting it tinted this summer!

Hey, sorry so long on the reply to your post. I actually bought the saleen wheels from a friend of mine that had them on his bird. I dont have the hub swap but want to badly. I just have the adapters for now. I will be uploading some new info on mods and track times soon so check it later.

Nice hood on the car, not too standoffish, nor is it in any way a ricey looking add-on. Thats a lot of nice effort you put into your car, but do you have any pictures of the inside? Otherwise, it could just use some rims. But the car looks great. Come on over and check out my ride. -Mike
