1992 Ford Thunderbird SC

Behold the Thunderbird Super Coupe

Not every car in the barn is for me. In fact, I never really had a passion for the 80's and 90's Thunderbirds- however I did once own a 59' T-Bird (SquareBird for the aficionado). This car was the dream car of my son. My sister's dream car was a Plymouth Duster... so I guess a Thunderbird might be considered aspirational? Anyway- this is not an ordinary car. The Super Coupe was a limited production go fast grand touring car from Ford- with a supercharged  V6 and a 5 speed transmission. It was also the Motor-trend 89' Car of the Year. The "perfect" SC was for sale locally- and my son took his friend to go visit his hero car. I heard about how great it was, but as a poor college student- it was simply out of reach. For those who know our family- 2019, was a difficult year, and I thought I'd try end it a little brighter for him. I brought the car to the barn, made up an excuse for him to come help me out- and had him open the garage to find it parked in front as the door opened. I am fortunate to have him to share my hobby with.
