    Your bird is just like one that was at pick and pull about ten years ago the only reason it was in the yard was a passenger door collision that totaled the car according to the ins. sticker on the windshield it was deemed totaled even though it just needed a door, what a shame it only had 110K on the clock and clean as a pin. I took the struts and the grill all were in new condition just like the rest of the car!

    I’d repair it the safest way possible especially if 1) the work is for fun/hobby and UA-cam content (you don’t lose much money, really) and especially if anyone will drive it. It needs to be safe. Thanks for the video!

    Do you know where I can get parts for my 88 Thunderbird?

      Mechanical parts are pretty readily available as they are shared with other cars. Resto and body parts are pretty much used only. Junkyards or check out 83-88 Aero thunderbird group on Facebook I'm on there

      They did put the 5.0 H.O. in Thunder Birds. Just had to flatten the intake a bit to fit under the hood. P.S. no car has or will ever "steal" anything from the Mustang.

    You call the car that is loved and respected since 1955 a Turd and expect me to subscribe? Rename your channel Turd CPR and I'll be happy to subscribe.

      Come on Bob Bob, any Bird above 79' is definitely a piece of shite. The looks went downhill, the power plants were crap. Its just another clay-filled ball on design with wimpy motivation.
