    Default 02-04 Thunderbirds any good...

    I have seen a few for sale out here in AZ and thinking on picking one or two up to resale, maybe even ship back to michigan. Are these any good, don't really know anything about them or the powertrain thats in them. Any issues to look out for.

    found a nice 02 with 120k miles for around $6000

    04 with 70k for around $9000

    its a Lincoln LS with 2 doors, same chassis as the 05 and newer mustang

    122 pin black oak processor

    it takes 2 modules to beep the horn

    i spent 2 years working on them before launch,.
    they are vastly underpowered but nice cars for long drives
    To me, it's a good idea to always carry two sacks of something when you walk around. That way, if anybody says, "Hey, can you give me a hand?" You can say, "Sorry, got these sacks."

    The lincoln LS had a terrible hyd fan setup that would use a 2nd power steering pump that always went bad.

    So run away! I like the style but was unsure about the mechanics. Thanks
