Vintage Thunderbird Club International

UPDATE UPDATE......its been about a week since I fixed my left rear window....I did the adjustment on the screw at the end of the motor....and the window is working great now...thanks guys for all the help

I have the same issue with my low fuel light--despite having installed a new sending unit. If I understand the circuit for the low fuel lamp correctly (Osborn Elec. Manual, page 61), the star-up test just tells you that the bulb is ok. It does not mean that the relay is working properly. I suspect ...

the topic about fuel senders have been covered a lot on forum...but I have to ask this question......on my 65 thunderbird I have the fuel sender with the low warning light.....when you first start the car it comes on real quick and goes off..when the fuel is low it does not come on....my question is...

I recently wen't through all my windows and for the first time since I've owned the car, the back windows work! But it wasn't easy.. You can certainly take the motor apart and rotate it a bit. Wouldn't hurt to clean it out and lube it a bit too. I suspect you'll find that the big gear on the regula...

Bob, i hope to pull the motor out again this weekend or perhaps i will wait till it sticks again being its not all that much fun taking it apart knowing it will be only a few weeks before it stops by itself either way i will let you know even if by a private E-Mail Thanks for all your help and conc...

I have a 65 thunderbird all of my windows are power ...the trouble I,m having is with my left rear window....sometimes it won,t go down like its stuck and yes there is power getting to the motor...if I take off the interior panel and tap on the regulator casing...it sta...

would LED dash lights bulb be a good choice ? and would they be brighter?... I think I found some on ebay( Ford White MEGA BRIGHT 42 LED)
and can someone give me a good part# thanks

I haven't had much luck with Larry's either. He gave me the "That's as close as you can get.." after sending me wrong color headliner and then gave me static over returning it. Other vendors had correct part. Some of the other bits and pieces I bought there fell apart after a few uses. OT...

Seeing as where you live in the high desert, I would suggest Larry's thunderbird parts in Corona. I have had good results with them on the few parts I have needed over the years, and the best part is I can drive there to see the parts before buying them. Bob. larrys cost to much and the customer se...

who is the best vendor out there with good quality parts...here is a few names Macs, Birdsnest, Thunderbird headquarters , Concours parts ,and the Thunderbird ranch.. I,m thinking I might be dealing more with Macs , Birdsnest, and the Thunderbird ranch...any ideals?

hello .....how do you rebuild your heater box on an A/C car.....do they make a seal kit or do you have to make you own? any ideals

jhenry's response sums it all up. Photos are critical, the slide away steering has slotted holes for adjustment that you need to get back into position. Also the "shutters" which cover the opening in the dash when the wheel is pushed aside can be tricky, be careful not to break a retainin...

Agree with all tips above. I have this tip: as you remove a set of screws, inventory them immediately; check that they are not ill-fitting replacements. Get correct replacements if they are, and replace all missing items. A few weeks afterward, your memory will not be reliable, so a picture of the ...

thanks jhenry those are some good steps to take

thanks redbird64 that's what I was thinking
