I am new around here.

I personally just got a Silver 1997 Thunderbird, for graduation. I am 17 years old (sorry if I'm one of very few teenagers, I turn 18 next month) and this forum seems very interesting. My T-bird has 64,000 miles on it and it's great. I really enjoy my car a lot. I wish I knew where to get a supercharger for it or maybe a flowmaster 🙄. I am very suprised how well the mileage is with this car considering my brother calls it a "boat" due to its large size.

I am very suprised that theres a forum dedicated to nothing but T-birds, that is really cool, Ford makes some really cool vehicles, and because they do, they're my favorite company.

Well, I just thought I would show my face, hope I'll have a good stay here 😀 .

You own one very classy car whose styling will never look completely outdated.

Just keep an eye on the trans, as many of them start to shudder during the 3-4 shift. Change the fluid regularly.

If you take close notice, the profile is very close to being that of a "fast back". Becomes even more noticeable with the factory spoiler.
 
Welcome opTykon and don't let your age discourage you. Many new style (retro) birds here, but there is a section for your year Bird as well.
Also some very helpful people, so enjoy your visits and the ride.

Yeah I did a little research about my car and I saw what you said about the tranny. They only said that about 96 models and below.

Definatley have your fluid changed - Use Mercon V
and drain the Torque Convertor - Also installing a transmission cooler
is very beneficial
