    Hello Everyone and Happy Friday! I have a 1997 Ford Thunderbird LX that I bought last summer and have been storing in my garage for now. It’s in very good condition and I am wanting to touch up some rock chips in my paint. The problem is I’m missing the door sticker unfortunately that provides...

    Hello everyone! I have a 1997 Ford Thunderbird LX and I love the car but am not a huge fan of the stock rims especially considering they aren’t chrome. I know we have a weird bolt spacing size and was wondering if: 1) anyone had a set of wheels for sale that fit the stock spacing size or 2)...

    Hello everyone! First time poster here, I recently purchased a 1997 Ford Thunderbird in near mint condition. I am in search of a Prairie Tan Drivers side door panel. I’ve searched all over and can only find one in a junkyard in Florida that doesn’t ship. I really want to make the car as mint as...

    Just got a 97 Thunderbird LX from my boyfriends brother. He’s currently in the military so the car was sitting for quite some time. Their dad charged the battery a couple times and let it run throughout the years. We decided to just take it into our hands. We replaced all the spark plugs, all...

    Hey guys just wanted to know what your suggestions are for transmission mounts for a 97 Ford Thunderbird I usually buy stuff from supercoupepreformance but I was wondering if a autozone transmission mount would get the job done any info helps. :)

    So I have a 1997 Thunderbird with the 4.6 l, and I have a fairly quick leak that appears to be coming from around the edges of my water pump. I had briefly noticed a small leak a few days ago, but it got much worse and lost a solid gallon of coolant on the way into work this morning. I'd like...

    Hey y'all, I recently bought a 97 TBird 4.6 & was running fine up until a week ago. It started making an awfully loud hissing sound so I assumed it had a cracked intake manifold. As I was tearing the parts off, I realized a small screw that sits next to and underneath the TPS had fallen...

    Hey everyone been looking around and can’t seem to find any info on whether or not you can put the tbird emblem hubcaps on 97 stock rims. Only thing I can find is 1994 Tbird images that show stock rims with the emblem on it, any info will help thanks guys. :)
  9. Engine - 4.6L & 5.4L
    Hey everyone, I have a 97 tbird 4.6L 108,500 miles. Every so often I’ll get this weird idle where the rpm needle will go up and down while the car is parked. I’ve replaced the idle air control valve along with the gasket not too long ago so I’m confident that’s not the issue. Maybe the throttle...

    Hey everyone so I just bought a 97’ t-bird LX 4.6L and wanted to get some direction on how I should go about upgrading to performance parts and what’s the best place to go about doing so. I’m really just looking to add some pep and power to the car. If I could get to around 250-275 whp I’d...

    If you have a black 1997 Thunderbird with a v8 or know where I can look for one in great shape and low miles let me know. Located in Michigan but don’t necessarily care about distance.

    I’m in need of knowing what this part is called. No it’s not a vacuum tee I’ve already tried looking it up and finding the part but I can’t seem to find it anywhere. It won’t hold idle unless I hit the gas a little bit after I cover the hole. It goes to the brake booster any tips on what this...

    Here is the a view from the bottom of the radiator looking up. Here is how much it shifted down below. I really love this car. I am really sad this happened to it.

    I just found on a market place a 1997 mustang motor and t56 transmission. Now I'm not interested in a standard transmission ( well maybe but not now) I am writing on here cause I think I may have my final plan for a motor completely done. With a non-boost and a boosted plan. First I would get...

    I’m looking for the bezel that goes over the speedometer. I was fixing my clock on the other bezel and when I removed my cluster bezel most of the tabs are completely snapped or busted. When I reinstalled the bezel it is not tight on the right side and wobbles. I am more than willing to pay...

    Silver / Gray Drivers Front Seat Belt 1997 / 1998 Mark VIII I need a drivers side front seat belt with retractor plus the buckle side (attaches to seat). It must be from a 1997 or 1998. I need one with a good working retractor, because mine is slow to retract and winds up getting caught in the...

    Hi everbody Transmission (98) died on my F150 and I found an used one (97) for a fair price. I found I found some information on this website, still have some doubt I understand some update has been done on the 98 and understand clearly how to swap a 97 with an upgraded 98. But I am in the...
