For those of you who are Thunderbird nuts, I picked up this hard back book at Walden books. It sells for about $33.00 per book.
The title on the book says Ford Thunderbird by Roy Bacon. It has a red cover with a picture of a 1955 convertable Thunderbird on it. The book talks about the cars from 1955 up to 2000. There is a seven page write up about the 1983 - 1988 T-birds with two pictures about the 1987 TC. The book has a total of 128 pages, very interesting. I think you guys would like it, check out your nearest Walden book store. I live in Pittsburgh PA and three of the four stores nearest to me had already sold them out. I might be able to get some more, I'll have to check if anybody is interested.

Hey guys and gals, I forgot to type in that the book was on a sale for $4.99, my fault.
plkdb, I'm from the north side of the Pittsburgh airport, (Beaver, PA).
I had a question for dixiedude, what super chip are you talking about and where can you pick one up and for how much. In the past, I was unable to get what I call a high performance chip (is this the same thing ?)
I didn't buy a bleeder valve fot my '88 TC, I made one of my own back in 1990 which gave me instant pressure to 17psi, I mean right now with next to no lag. If I had thought about it, I probably could have marketed this and made a fortune, oh well, live and learn.
I'm in the process of rebuilding my '88 TC engine, if anyone has some good helpful hints and tips, please let me know, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks for getting back to me and let the THUNDERBIRDS ROLL INTO THE FUTURE !!

I got my superchip from my work for $300. And it comes with a bleeder valve with it. You can get them from www.superchips.com and they retail for $350. And then to get one they give you a number in your area to call. Well I called a bunch of times and got tons of different numbers, so call around, and some places will give you some realy good deals.

I live pretty close to your friend then... I'm about four blocks up from that bridge.

I have a white 87 TC that will be carrying a slightly twisted front clip until spring time. According to the carfax that birdman just sent me (thanks man!), it was last titled in Beaver.
