Thunderbird was produced between 1975-1977. One of my fav cars. Not too hard to get but hard to find in as good condition as my one. Just lucky to get this one. They came with a Tycopro or Curvehugger chassis. Swapped the chassis for a brand new 440 chassis added alloy rims and Goodyear tires. I know, I know, not original but who cares I like my cars to look the way I like them not the way the collectors think they should look!
55 Nomad has a 440 chassis. "Vincent" custom wheels from Germany and I added the decals. 37 Ford is from "Road Race Replicas". Also has a matching trailer you can hook on the back.
Cheers Dave.
