Engine & Drivetrain

The heart of this Thunderbird is a modern 5.0L Coyote V8 with a heavily upgraded MMR Aluminator bottom end, built for strength and durability to handle upwards of 1,000 horsepower. This means it’s ready for a blower, turbo, or any performance upgrades you want to throw at it. The engine is paired with a smooth-shifting 6R80 automatic transmission that provides excellent drivability and modern reliability.

Suspension & Braking

Handling and ride quality have been dramatically improved with a full modern suspension setup. This includes QA1 coilovers featuring fully adjustable ride height, ensuring you can dial in your perfect stance and performance. The rear is equipped with a Strange-built, narrowed Ford 9-inch axle with a 3.73:1 posi-traction differential and a 4-link suspension system for excellent traction and cornering stability. Up front, a Helix coilover suspension with power rack and pinion steering offers precision and confidence behind the wheel.

Stopping power comes from Wilwood 11-inch four-piston calipers, delivering powerful, fade-resistant braking for safety and control.

Exterior & Wheels

The car is finished in sleek, glossy black paint that accentuates its classic lines. It rides on custom Foose knuckle wheels — 10 inches wide in the rear and 8 inches wide in front — wrapped in modern performance tires that provide both grip and an aggressive stance. The exterior lighting is upgraded with stylish halo driving lights featuring integrated turn signals, along with sequential tail lights that blend modern technology with vintage aesthetics.

Interior & Technology

Inside, the cabin balances classic comfort with modern convenience and entertainment. Vintage air conditioning and heating systems keep the cabin comfortable in all seasons. The dashboard hosts Speedhut gauges, including a GPS speedometer integration that runs the original cluster for an authentic yet modernized feel.

Entertainment is handled by a Kenwood 7-inch touchscreen system with Apple CarPlay, complete with a backup camera for easier parking. Audio enthusiasts will appreciate the powerful sound system with dual 10-inch subwoofers powered by a 1,000-watt amplifier.

Additional amenities include push-button start with remote key fob, enhancing ease of use and security.

Power Top & Convenience

The retractable hardtop functions flawlessly thanks to a complete refurbishment of the hydraulic system. All pistons, pumps, relays, hoses, and solenoids have been replaced to ensure reliable operation. The power roof can be controlled remotely, adding convenience and modern functionality to this vintage classic.
