Help finishing project car

[Brett Schneider]

I bought a 1990 Thunderbird SC 1 year ago. I got it road worthy about a month ago. I recently ran into some medical issues and will not be able to finish the car myself. Where would the best place be to bring the car to have it restored. I would like motor upgrades to produce 350 HP and the transmission built to handle that with 3 inch exhaust all the way back. I would like the interior redone and to have the car repainted. Pretty much a total restoration. Brakes, coil pack, spark plugs, wires, and water pump have all been replaced. Also, it has a car alarm that is a factory add on i would like removed. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Brett Schneider

I'm not sure how far Tea S.D. is from you, but I've heard/read good things about Straightline Restorations.
605 368 9773 I think you mentioned in a earlier post you had a 2 year timeline-Your sons grad/prom.

Wondering if it might be quicker/more economical to buy something close to what you want already done

I have read a few of your posts, but didn't see any pictures of your SC. Also, just making a 30 year old something SC sorted out, and usable stock, is a project of it's own. I have a 2004 Mercedes E55 AMG, that I ran a 12.6 sec 1/4 mile, leaving the line like a grandma, and probably paid less then you will have total in all your dreams about modifying you SC. Pretty easy to get over $10K.

With a 90 you'll always be fighting with the Teves system & you mentioned you have already done parts of the brake system.
With the upgrades you are proposing, I'd be replacing the whole system.
