Richard Adams says: My father bought it in Montreal in 1983. I inherited it when I turned 16. I wish I still had it. It was a very early production. It was white on white and white vinyl interior. It had a 302 with C4 transmission and 2.73 gears; power windows was the only option. It looked identical to RN 60507. I loved this car, it was very reliable. I drove it all over the country and even took it to the Artic in the middle of the winter. I ended up installing a 5.0 l Mustang engine and a 5-speed transmission in it around 1990. I used the Mustang dash and interior as much as I could. It would run 13.0 at 119 in the quarter like that. Unfortunately rust took over and it got so rusty around the rear shock towers I scrapped in many years ago. All I have are pictures now but the powertrain lives on in my friend's 1986 Thunderbird now. I wish I still had it
