In the final days of the restoration of the '63 500XL. All in all things have proceeded smoothly in making this iconic car a "sleeper." The baby blue color along with the formal top and fender skirts make her look like a grocery getter. However, the Thunderbird FE 390 is built to 410 horse with a Tremac 5 speed and hydraulic clutch. To make her handle right, we put Ride Tech 4 link with coil overs all the way around.
We are down to replacing the rubber and felt to tighten her up, then she will be show ready!
