Been in love with these cars since I turned 16 back in 92 and my dad wouldn’t let me buy one. Had a blue  88 TC when I was in college but couldn’t afford to fix it up and got rid of it. Bought this white 88 with red leather in June with 70k on it. I’ve been visiting this site as a guest for some time now reading about all that you guys do to maintain and upgrade your birds.  I got plans for this one and they all come from what I’ve read here. Thanks for letting me into the fold.
