TurboBird pics

[Black Talon]

I finally got a chance to take a few pics of the Turbo Coupe. I am getting ready to put some new shocks and struts on it and cut the coils. I am going to be sanding down the whole car for paint as well. It doesn't look bad for $1500.

Cold blooded.......

Very nice for only being $1500 bucks. You got a heluva deal.

Ur taking this turbo"bird" thing a little to far. Did u try to make your elbows look like wings in the second pic(reflection) lol. Matches the emblem though. J/k nice ride for that price especially.

I always like those turbo coupes. I remember driving one when they came out. I was really surprised. Felt identical, power wise, to the 5.0 Bird I drove the same day. Great deal!

those are awesome cars. My buddy had one in high school and we would cruise in it all the time and surprise alot of people.

Damn that thing is clean.

I have an '88 AOD TC with a dead cylinder. I'm hoping to start swapping the drivetrain into my Pinto sometime this year.

There is not many around anymore, most are in the junkyard. Cash for clunkers did not help any. I love the Turbo 4 setup, great power delivery.The 2.3 motors can handle like 22-23 pounds of boost out of the box. I am only running 15.

Merkur Depot makes a nice and affordable 3" DP if you are interested. I just picked one up to include the elbow, goes from 4" -> 3"

Oh yeah i know the potential of them, just wasnt sure if you were gonna go mainstream and yank the engine for a v8 like most people do to these.
