  • Where did this one come from?

    Going through old photos I came across this one and cannot remember where it came from. Who knows the history?

      In 2007 Saleen had a poster of his 302 (boss 302 ) that showed a similar reflection with the original Boss 302. Parnelli and Steve were here and so was George Follmer( who at that time lived here in Coeur D Alene. All three signed the poster I had which has since been misplaced. It all took place at my local Dealer Tom Addis Ford.
      Your post reminded me of that

        Here's a giclee to buy, but the source isn't given, although it should be. I'll be interested to find out as well. It's called Thunderbird Old and New

          Pretty sure that mine came from QuickDraw. I could be remembering wrong though.

              Ford had these made. They are still available from Ford Images:

              They also did one for the 50th anniversary with a '55 and a '05 - only in Torch Red of course.

              ​​​​​​Here they both are hanging in my Thunderbird Alley (aka the hallway):

                      Yes, he did it. You likely got it from him. I think he offered some for sale a few years ago. I think he only charged enough to cover the printing and postage.

                          Here's some more info on the first red one. Note that in Paul's photo, you can see some tiny black printing in the lower right side of the poster:
                          poster design "by Tim Messer, Ford WHQ Creative Services" Year it showed up was 2002.

                          as Paul noted, the black poster is a custom made by one of our members. I've done a couple for myself of black with Sand softop and Inca Gold. time consuming projects.

                          Many of the FMC/WHQ posters were made available to us at early TBN events when we had some special Ford guests at our events.

                            Dick sent me an email that contained the black bird (his car is black with a partial interior, but not sure if it is the classic black/white) There was no charge.
