Right from the start of the Fox bodies I have always liked them.
My father worked for Ford where the Fairmonts were assembled for a few years.
I have owned 3, 1980 Thunderbirds, one a Silver Anniversary model that was too rough to save.
My first new car was an 87 Thunderbird LX Sport.
Unfortunately I missed as red light six months later.
As the original owner of an 88 XR-7, that I still have, I share you love of these cars.
I spotted the Red one for sale in 2017 but I was too busy to even go see it.
It had some equipment on it, Like a Tremec TKO 5 speed and the top of the line MSD ignition system.
It disappeared on-line so I forgot about it.
About 8 months later, it appeared on-line again, minus the 5-speed and the ignition.
The seller, now just wanted to part it out and was not interested in selling it whole.
I offered him a fair price it Red/Red was on it's way.
I have been hunting and gathering a few parts that I needed and even found a whole Blue/Blue Cougar parts cat that had stuff on it that I never thought I needed.
