![]() ![]() With only 59,000 miles on it, this Thunderbird comes from a Ford dealer’s private collection and was said to be stored in a climate-controlled setting its entire life. Well, last week, one of the nicest we have ran across in a while came up for sale on Craigslist just outside of Detroit, Michigan. ![]() Mostly treated as “just cars,” they are all worn out or in the junkyard already, so when a really nice one pops up for sale, we always take notice! The problem now though, as they grow more popular, the nice ones are long gone. However, available with the 302 V8 or the turbocharged 2.3-liter turbo, these cars were respectable performers for their time. Arguably, the most sporty design outside the Mustang to share the chassis, the Thunderbird was always underrated in the performance world. One of the more popular examples seems to be the 1983 to 1988 Ford Thunderbirds. As early Fox Mustangs get harder and harder to find, we are noticing a steady increase in popularity of other cars built on the Fox chassis.
