Ford ThunderBirdFord thought they'd take their own stab at the nostalgia business. There are quite a few last-century icons that wear the blue oval. For a revival subject, why not use a car famous enough to have been the subject of Beach Boys songs, starred in George Lucas movies, and has been gone long enough to be missed? Why not indeed.

I have an 85 thunderbird that I have owed since high school(15years ago). I pulled the 3.8 out and replaced it with a 1972 429 my senior year. After a house/wife/kids you know how it goes I pulled it out of storage for a little TLC going to replace 429 with 351 cleveland 4V. Am going to make the engine swap look good this time remove excess wiring and vacume lines instead of taping it back. Where does a guy start would like to tear it all out and start over but. Looks like the lights could be a pain. do I just start removing all wires that does not go to light or under dash? Just not sure where to start. Does anyone make a after market wiring harness for it that is just the basic ignation any blower motor,lights,radio Ect.
