@Hotrodrob – Hi, just a few questions. Are there any fluid leaks of any kind, does everything work as delivered (dash functions), and many of the photo's show a white discoloration in the red paint? hoping that is just reflections, please confirm.....Thank you ...

By the way everything on the dash, stereo and climate control all function perfectly..

Hey - This T-Bird is pristine - No leaks of any kind. Sits in my garage so I would see even the smallest leak. Also for the record I had 2 bodyshops examine this car when I purchased both say this Car has all the original body parts and is all factory paint. No touchup of any kind. The paint is perfect I will guarantee that, must be some type of reflection. Really don't want to sell but I'm unable to drive because of medical issues and can't stand seeing it just sitting in my garage day after day. Hope this helps, good luck on your hunt for the right Thunderbird!

@Hotrodrob – can anyone explain in 2008- 2,450 miles reported, in 2011- 86,071 miles reported and in 2013- 10,293 miles reported? ...

This is a very common problem. When the emissions were done they enter the mileage wrong. Often time adding the tenth of a mile as part of the mileage. Put it this way the emission people are far from being highly trained. I had this same thing happen last year on my sons car and still trying to get it fixed. These companies are in a big hurry to put stuff on the report but almost impossible to remove. If this vehicle had 86k in 2011 it sure would show some wear. This car is pristine. Hope this helps. Thanks for your interest. By the way the reason I"m selling is due to medical problems. I love the car but it kills me to see it just sit in my garage.
