My stepmom had an 88 Turbo Coupe back in, well 88, and I loved that car. I'd hate to see someone use it for parts on anything other than another turbo coupe.

i got mine for 500
yes rare but nobody wants them or you would have paid $5000 instead of $500 for it

a swap into a stang is a smart move because you lose 500lbs of usless weight doing so.

it is a good swap and comp cams maks some mad cams for the 2.3L

May have been, but this was the first car I ever drove (not to mention I was only 14). Just sentimental value, but I still loved that car.

Youre a complete idiot...if they were so slow selling, why were they Car of the Year in 87? Rust buckets? Theyre nearly the same car as your beloved mustang...so i guess your car is a rust bucket to huh? I guess your mustangs are so much better when we got options not available on any other car, more leg and head room, more trunk space, and the thunderbirds lowest available engine made more power than the mustangs lower available engine.

Youre an ignorant ***...you know that?
