1997 Ford Thunderbird LX 4.6L V8 T-Bird Many Mods!

Aftermarket Parts, Modifications, Winter Rim & Tire Set

Description

Up for sale is my 1997 Ford Thunderbird LX 4.6L V8 that has been my daily driver for many years!

·         Mileage: 131,172

·         Clean car, non-smoker

·         Clean title and CARFAX

·         No issues with the engine or transmission.

·         All features function, such as AC, heat, headlights, power windows and doors, etc.

 

I have another car as a daily driver so the time has come to let go of this T-Bird.  This T-Bird would make a great project car or a parts car.  I am an honest person so here are the areas that need to be address/repaired:

·         Antenna motor does not work.  It is in the up position so the radio works.

·         Catalytic converter is the original and need to be replaced (DTC codes are thrown due to the old cat).  The original exhaust is still holding up!

·         Dents and scratches from daily wear and past vandalism.

·         Engine oil pan gasket needs to be replaced.

·         Front end needs a rebuild - upper and lower ball joints, bushings, etc., need to be replaced.

·         Front windshield has a crack running through it.

·         Rotors, brake pads, and brake lines need to be replaced.  Brake fluid is leaking out of a rusted brake line.

·         Rust holes in the body panels, doors, underside rust etc., need to be repaired.

·         Tachometer does not function.
