The vehicle I drive is a 1995 Ford Thunderbird LX with the 4.6L SOHC V8. It currently has 130K miles +/- 8k ( not real sure). It is BUTT ugly and when warmed up (problems with egr when cold) it flat out flies. Unfortunately it only flies to 106 then cuts out to 100 and back and forth... I have plans for a 3.55's with trac loc, chip, nitrous and or single turbo, and some 26/10.5-15 ET Streets on stock wheels when I go to the track. I just dropped $310 on tires at wally-world about a month ago so finances are a bit tight.

Pictures are below just in case anyone might be interested in acquiring the car for a fair and reasonable price.












Should you wish to discuss anything regarding this vehicle you may either contact me via PM or via phone # which I will send via reply to PM.

I really hope that folks manage to use this site and make it just as popular as TCCoA is.]]>

This maybe a little off topic, but I’m a design student. And I would be gratefully appreciative, if you guys could participate in my alternative fuels/vehicle online survey.

1. Engine oil is the most element of a car engine that plays a vital role in car performance. It should be changed periodically or after every 3,000 to 6,000 miles. Also check the oil level and refill the tank if the level is low.

2. Check the condition of the air filter. If you find any kind of dirt or crack in the air filter, immediately replace it or else it would hamper the functioning of the car engine.

3. Whenever you decide to replace engine parts, ensure that you use original components. Faulty and fake engine components may damage the engine completely if they don't fit in well or are not reliable.

4. Use clean fuel for your car. Adding a fuel stabilizer to the engine can also be helpful for preventing gas from going stale.

5. Inspect the condition of the spark plug and if required change them. Damaged or ineffective spark plugs hamper the performance of the car engine and also prevents costly engine repairs.

6. If in case you find any kind of strange noises from the engine, get it checked from the mechanic and make sure that the necessary repair is done.]]>

Here are some of mine

Try used fabric softer dryer sheets to remove love bugs from front of car,just wet them and rub away the bugs.

The best product I've found to remove water spots and make your black car/suv shine is Eagle One Wet..Wipe and Shine...this product is awesome to remove spots on paint and also your exterior windows.

I spray WD-40 on my wheels before I go to the car wash,then when you get to the car wash, all you have to do is pressure wash the brake dust off...works great.

I used a can of compressed air that you would use to clean your computer to remove gum from my seat,you just hold the can upside down and frosty air will come from it to freeze the gum till it was removed.

Share more and more information related to it.

* The engine should idle smoothly(without surging or sputtering)
* Look for sings of repainting. Check whether all body parts in same color.
* Inspect the chassis of the car. The bodyline will give you an indication whether the car has met an accident or not.

* Check the wheel alignment of cars. Uneven wear and tear of tyres-balding on the sides or in the middle-indicate poor alignment.
* Check the condition of battery.
* Check whether all the headlights and indicators are working properly.
* Check air conditioning system.]]>

Speed over 50kmph can save gas.

A dirty air filter will rob the engine of power and efficiency.
