New kid on the block....

Very happy to have found this web site.  A number of you have already been so helpful.  What a great group of owners!  Thought I would post a pic of my '84 Thunderbird.  408 stroker, 525 HP, 576 ft lbs of torque, lowered, tubular steel subframe, A04 racing tranny, 383 gears in the back, 4 wheel disk brakes.  Very very fast and powerful 'bird.

, no wonder mine is slow.

I've only only got one gear (and one pinion) in the back of mine... maybe I need to get one of them there racing trannies...or at least a hurdling hermaphrodite.

Very nice.  All it is missing is Bill Elliott's signature above the door.

I could tell it looked like a street car. Definitely more fun to have a car you can drive every day.
