  • Here's a cool old classic you never see anymore, about a 429 Thunderjet 4V 1970 Ford Thunderbird?! What a cool mixture of 1970s styling, beautiful interior, 5 ash trays for all to enjoy, a 429 shoved under the awkwardly massive good, and easily one of the best looking rear ends of the era.
    This particular car is an amazing example of the type, front to back top to bottom is is absolutely beautiful. Our task today is to get it tracking and driving correctly, so the customer can get it on the road. Off to the Hunter Alignment rack!

    My neighbor had one growing up when I was a teenager. Her Dad fixed it up with her. Power everything and with 429 inches of Ford big block power. She drove it to school her last two years of highschool. Ironically I had a 1968 Mercury Cougar XR7 same color as her bird, midnight blue and loaded with every available option. Great attention to detail as always. Getting this fine old example of Detroit engineering driving the way it should.

    Wow, we had a 70 Thunderbird just like that one. Same color and top. Dad would fill her up with ethyl and it would really move. It did awesome burnouts and would pin you to the seat for such a big ole girl. That 429 would run. Great to see this ole bird. I loved the taillights and the nose was like a big beak.

    Sharp & it looks like somebody really did a great job fixing & resto-modding this usually neglected era T-Bird. This is the kind of stuff I do to cars I have...start with a good base and improve

    Had a very beautiful 4dr '68 T-Bird with a rebuilt 429 in the same color. Too bad my late dad blew up the engine.

    I took my 68 Impalla to a shop many years ago for an allignment and the first thing they told me after 15 minutes was that the front end was shot and needed everything? Funny thing is that I had just spent the last week replacing almost everything including all of the bushings and every tie rod end and pitman arm. I told them in the office that I was the mechanic who did work and that if I could have done the allignment I would have. I went to another shop...

      Sounds like that shop found an opportunity instead of a customer. You handled that well by leaving.

      @wesoblander3648 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Rich, I like to see the attention to detail with the technical side through the adjustments and why you adjust them that way.
      Your alignments are not done in the cookie-cutter tire shop way . Such a cool car to see up close...

    Never cared for Blunderturds but that is a very nice example of Ford styling for that era, and a big block at that. Try not to have an organism Rich....
