This is my T-bird 1979

tbird1979's 1979 Ford Thunderbird

I bought this car back in 1997 in Eindhoven (the Netherlands). The first 3 years I used it daily (it was my only car). Right now I only use it for plesure rides.
My T-bird has a 460ci (7.5 ltr) V8 engine performing about 375 bhp. Most of the car is still original except for the exhaust system; this is handbuild for me.

Both pictures were taken back in 2001 when we just moved into our now home. Right now everything is looking a little different, but the car is still the same.

In the back you can also see the Alfa Spider from my wife and my Mercury Sable.
In 2003 the engine is replaced with a new one (the old one was broken) a year later the transmission has been replaced.

More to come..
