Mod vs. No Mod poll

Re: Mod vs. No Mod poll

How many mods are too many! ................ I'm thinking there is a stopping point I don't want to cross. Thoughts!

Bill,
This is a controversial topic. I've gotten some bad responses to my opinion, but if you want it, I would be glad to give it to you. As a long-time "car guy"/"car enthusiast" who has owned a lot of different cars both foreign and domestic that included European, Asian , American classics, sports, grand touring, etc., I have some ideas about mods, and it would not hurt my feelings if you did not want to use or agree with them. Just PM me, and I will tell you what I think. It is your car do so I really think you should do what appeals to you, but since you are asking about what is "too many" or maybe you want to know what in my opinion is over the top. I would be glad to share my ideas.

Bill, It's your car so do what YOU like. There are a lot of these things people put on their car that I don't like but like I said, it's their car. I have done a few things that I'm sure others don't like but I don't care, it's my car.

Re: Mod vs. No Mod poll

The hardtop protection came the day before Easter when all 4 children were home. They stole the box, wrapped it and said do not open 'til Father's day. Can that be considered a mod? Will do hood scoop and shorter headlight trim if it becomes available. July b-day just around the corner.

How many mods are too many! Sure was an interesting Father's day and B-day this year as the kids bought and installed the chrome hood scoop, the short headlight covers, top protection strip and the dash kit. They want to know what's for Christmas! Son found taillight chrome covers and wants the ok for 12-25. I'm thinking there is a stopping point I don't want to cross. Thoughts!

Re: Mod vs. No Mod poll

I consider a mod to be something you have changed on the car that indicates it is not the way a new Bird looked when coming off the assembly line.

Only your window sticker would know.

Re: Mod vs. No Mod poll

If I mount a hardtop that was not ordered on my car (but I did pick up at the factory and was installed there) would that be considered a mod?

Re: Mod vs. No Mod poll

OK, I BROKE DOWN AND DID A SECOND MOD.

You mean you missed that top you sold?

Wow!

...er, what? I'm guessing wheels. Or, radio? Floor mats?

Color matched top!

I'm with you on this one......

Me too, plus I don't plan to stand there so why carpet it?

Re: Mod vs. No Mod poll

I like the idea of a carpet on the "package shelf", but how, how, how, many, many, many Thunderbird logos do you need to display on your car? I'd just like it in plain black.

Re: Mod vs. No Mod poll

I installed the hardtop protection trim a few months back and now I installed ss rocker panels and today the all chrome hood scoop. I painted the background of the scoop to black so the louvers would stand out. The scoop looks great on my black bird.

For me, there are never enough TBird logos..
