I just picked up 95 thunderbird SC with 68k miles. 5spd black with gray, and a sunroof. Very clean inside and out. Motor runs good but cant say great.
It had acouple small problems which i already fixed. Shifter bushing, engine fan, new wires plugs fuel filter, and the car run alittle better. Still need to change the motor mount though.
Over all i think i got a good deal. I paid 2500 for it. Love the car alot. I have four cars now and this one is the best. I do plan on doing some mods to the car. Trying to look for any free mods.
Questions from a new SC owner.
1. Car seems to bog around 3.5-4k rpms. After the samll tune up got more power but still seems like all the power is not there. as if the power is loss at 4.5k and after. I have been reading alot about Head gaskets. Alittle worried!
2. Any common problems or anything i should look out for our check?
3. Car seems rough. I think its the motor mount. Shaking at idle but the idle is steady. When you go forward it feels rough. Hard to explain.
4. I'm reading that my car is rare. Is this true. Becuase if it is i'll take even best of best care for it now.
Thanx for for any help. I have been doing alot reading and going to read some more after this.
