Ford Thunderbird 1986 Description

With all the Pro mod street classes popping up inspired by street outlaws I built this call to run Pro mod or qualify for the new Outlaw street classes that require a title plates insurance lights and bullet race mufflers. After spending 6 months building this car with nothing but the best of everything I ended up injuring my back. We’re talking $50 grand in this build without labor. The only reason this car is going for sale is because my back won’t allow me to race it this year. If it’s here I’m going to race it and Dr. says no way.

I’ll post the specs of the motor below but bottom line the motor’s new ( Not rebuilt) New block heads blower Best of everything. Trans is a billet Glide with Trans brake. Trans has 4 passes on it since complete rebuild. Torque converter is new Pro Comp with 4500 stall. Headers were custom GP Racing headers. All components have about an hour tune time on them. Cars been tuned but has not made one pass. Was planning to hit the track for test and tune then run for the top 10 list 5/15.
