Spotted a 2002 IY in the lot of a body shop on Rt 31 South in Flemington, NJ. It had no noticeable damage.

took George to dealership yesterday in the Inca to pick up our 02 and spotted a PCR that had just been finished with service.

Found the thread. It was started in January, on the 9th, one day after the 20th anniversary of the start of orders for the 2002 Ford Thunderbird..


Suggest that members subscribe to this thread to find it more easily in the coming months.

btw. I've spotted that same PCR that I mentioned above a few more times since that post. I may have even got a photo or two of it since.

and that reminds me that I spotted a 2005 Medium steel blue a few weeks ago when I went shopping at Walmart. Parked my car and watched to see where it parked. Went over and introduced myself to the driver who looked very familiar to me. She was. had not seen her for a couple of years and she also has a 57 Inca Gold Tbird. I figured I had to know her because I noticed that her plate frame on back has "My Other Car is a Classic Tbird". I had also seen that frame on an SUV a few weeks earlier than this sighting and had taken a picture of it as I figured I probably knew that owner, too. It turns out that that was her SUV.

Her 2005 had belonged to another person I know in the area, Marian Herbst which one or two others here have met.

There are 2 of them for sale locally. A 2003 msg with black interior and matching hardtop, 34,000 miles, asking $20,000. It's nice.
the other one is a 2002, white with black/red interior, 79,000 miles, no hardtop, runs fine but could use new tires and some minor cosmetic help. Asking $8,950.
Both are at different used car dealers.

Been living in Branson, MO since the middle of Jan 21. I have seen and found the owners of to retro birds, Neither owner had ever heard of the "Nest" Both owners have business here. Have also seen two other Birds on the streets. Sure is nice to see Thunderbird Sightings 2021

This has been a good site, but over the years people have migrated from message board formats to social media (Facebook).

A 2002 IY pulled into my driveway today and still had the top on even though it was a nice suny and warm day for top down cruising . Owner came for some brochures etc. that he wanted .

lol, I could almost guess that was Steve Legel's car since he doesn't take his top off either but he lives on the other side of the border from you plus I'm sure he picked up brochures when they were new.

Getting to talk with Steve is like pulling teeth these days . btw. Back a few years ago I sold Steve some of the large 2002 Brochures .

He's busy as ever, refurbishing homes; his dentistry practice. Even gets on facebook and here occasionally. He has finished his warehouse (old bowling alley) to house his autos and is in the process of moving his collection of diecasts to it. The cars are already in it.
