1978 Ford Thunderbird, Polar white/Lipstick red, 5.8L Windsor V8, Automatic
1978 Ford Thunderbird is Painted in a gorgeous two-tone combination of Pearl white and Lipstick
red. The car boasts an original interior and paint with only 16,787 miles. The Thunderbird is
equipped with a 5.8L/351 CID 2V V-8 which puts out 152 horsepower and over 275 lbs of torque.
The russet red interior and split bench seats contrast brilliantly with the pearl white/ lipstick red
exterior. The Thunderbird has a great sounding system and a pioneer radio installed under current
ownership. The Thunderbird runs great, starts instantly, and could even be used as a daily driver.
The upgraded suspension is ultra-soft when driving, yet stiff around turns. The car has minor rust
scattered around the body and paint cracks behind the chrome bumper. The Thunderbird also has a
working 8-track sound system and a great collection of tracks. Under current ownership, new wheels
were bought for $4700; the Thunderbird now rides on a set of Tru-spoke wire 56 spoke rims with
whitewall American Classic tires 225/75R15.
