1988 Ford Thunderbird LS Not Running Rolling Chassis
Price: -
Item location: Fairbury, Illinois, United States
Description:
1988 Ford Thunderbird LX
This is my former project car. I have had this pretty far apart to rebuild it, but I put it back together as a rolling chassis so that someone can put it on their trailer. I put the original read-end in, and re-attached the OEM A-Arms and springs. None of the brakes are hooked up.The good:
- Underneath is very clean. I had blasted the rear subframe, and re-welded all the seams to strengthen it. I then re-undercoated it.
- I put a new tank and high flow fuel pump in it
- Most of the parts are there to put it back together. The interior is all there, intact but it's missing the steering column trim.
- There are a couple small rust-holes which are quire repairable
- This is an original car with only 64xxx miles on the chassis
- I had this one taken apart pretty far, and my plan was to replace it with a drivetrain out of a 2004 mustang cobra. The drivetrain has been sold however.
- I have the engine and transmission for this. I'll include them if the auction goes over $100.
- Misc parts are missing - the door trim (which I didn't want in the first place), the dew wipes from the doors, the inner fenders in the front, etc.
It has the original hood (not shiwn) what will be included. Note, this is a project, and as such, expect a few things not to work right.
I'm getting rid of all my thunderbird stuff, so let's have a little fun with the auction! I'm listing this for $1 with no reserve. I'll include parts based on where the bidding goes:
- If it gets to $100 - I'll include the original engine/transmission
- If it gets to $150 - I'll add a 1990 Mustang HO Short Block, E6 Heads, and An ECU so that you can convert to HO car.
- If it gets to $200 - I'll add the replacement rust-free doors.
- If it gets to $300 - I'll add the replacement rust-free front fenders (without marker light) and matching trim.
- If it gets to $400 - I'll add a used AOD transmission with a shift kit and a floor shifter.
- If it gets to $500 - I'll add Southern Poly pure white paint.
- If It gets to $600 - I'll add brand new tubular rear control arms
- If it gets to $700 - I'll add a turbo coupe hood (with scoops).
- If It gets to $800 - I'll add brand new front a-arms from a 2004 mustang cobra
