@JavonteTreble They are made by "Ultra", but they haven't been made for quite a while though especially in a 4 lug application like the older tbirds were, and are hard to find in good shape like these were... However "Ultra Wheel" still has some good looking muscle type wheels that would look good on a 97 on their website though.
@JavonteTreble and the tires are Firestone Firehawk INDY 500's. Shouldn't cost you more than $65-75 a tire. Best tires I have ever owned. They are quiet, and GREAT in rain/snow
@1bad302 At 0:44 the car is just on a smooth downhill road, I do not own jackstands, or a floor jack for that matter. Take your dipshit comments somewhere else.
@SteelCity1981 oh my god, it would be soo awesome to see a conversion like that!! You'd have so much more power on tap for sure!! You'd finally be able to do a real burnout and not a wimpy ass brake stand :P I really wish they would have just put the mustang's HO 5.0 in here but oh well what can you do?
@tbirdsport302 if you look on here people put the new 5.0's in older mustangs one guy put it in his 86 mustang GT and the mother fucker flies. If you want to save up 6 grand for something that would be 6 grand worth saving up for.
@tbirdsport302 What you can do is a motor swap from a mustang like i did. I got an 88 tbird with a 5.0 HO engine, i also mixed some explorer parts in as well. 70 mm tbody, egr, and matching upper.
@MrKirby1984 well i used this place in Wisconsin called Thunderbird Ranch (just google it) guy has a bunch of tbird parts cars and some new parts as well plus the guy who runs it knows his shit too and is very helpful....... if he doesn't have it he could prolly direct you to someone who does.....other than that ebay works too of course but you have to check frequently for new part listings since they usually are much rare-er :(
@MrKirby1984 yeah its pretty much stock, it has flowmaster 40 series mufflers on it but that's it. I would call it stock since the exhaust really doesn't do much in my opinion.
@bestamerica well most older cars didn't have the amber in the tails, a lot of new-er cars are doing that now though, don't really know why, other than its just easier to see the amber flash at night i guess...it was mostly foreign/import cars that started doing that i believe in early 90's...like toyota and honda... im pretty sure that ford and chevy mostly still use just the flashing red tail lights for turn signal and hazards.
@HALOBROSk57 nice, mine only has the flowmaster dual exhaust on it, i have always wanted to get headers, intake and cam for it but i just figured that i'd wait untill i got a new engine and trans for it to do that stuff, hopefully within the next few years after i get out of college
@HALOBROSk57 sweet, i can't believe that mine is still kicking like it is with 225,000 miles on it, the previous owner/s must have taken great car of it!! and yours too
@tbirdsport302 What kind of rims/tires are those? I'd like to put something similar on my 1997 T-Bird.

I wonder how much more of a beast those t-birds would be if you stuck the new coyote 5.0 V8 in that thing.
