New T-Bird Owner
Well, I'm going pick up a 1963 Thunderbird Landau tomorrow. Actually I was asked to remove it from where it has been sitting for the past 14 years. Apparently the owner parked it at his business and walked away from it. He passed away about 2 months ago and I was asked if I wanted the car. I made an offer of $250 on it (its a little rough) but I was told that they don't want anything for it so its mine. Going sign the title over and get it towed home tomorrow.

Yeah its going to be quite a project. Got it to the house, spent $130 and got it running. I put a battery and a fuel pump on it and it at least runs good enough to move it around. I'll have to get 4 tires that actually hold air for more than 24 hours, brakes and a lower radiator hose. The air cleaner is missing, fuel tank is rusted out so I'll be getting one of those also. My goal is to get the car where I can move it around in my shop so I can park one of my other vehicles in there. Power steering works but it grinds a bit and the transmission doesn't want to engage all the time so I will have to change fluid and filters in both. I'll be using the forum a good bit I suppose since this is all new to me. I have a couple of old Mustangs but this 390 is a whole other beast.

I hope you start posting your comments and questions on the Bulletbird Forum so that myself and others can find them easier.

Sounds like a nice project.
