I used to love Nascar back in the days ... of big wings and elephant motors and mystery motors and even into the 80's when cars looked like cars you could buy ... in fact, when Awesome Bill from Dawsonville was back doing his thing in that Ford Thunderbird ... I went a bought a brand new 86 2 door Thunderbird with a turbo 4 banger in it ... can't remember what tranny ... but I am thinking it may have been a 5 speed manual ... Nice car ... 150 or so hp ...  87 they added the intercooler to it and upped the ponies .... have you ever reviewed those cars John?
