  • January 2016 FOTM Winner

    Congratulations Jerry for a well deserved FOTM!
    I'll enter Blue Thunder.
    Blue Thunder is a 1992 Ford Festiva.
    It has a1992 Escort GT 1.8 Liter motor with 61000 miles, a TD05 Turbo charger, 27x6 intercooler, B6T electronics.
    It also has an Mfactory Limited Slip Diff, High performance clutch, Bottom radiator core support mod, Honda Civic 2 core radiator, and short shifter.
    It has fender flares, 15x6 Mazda wheels with 185-55-15 Federal SS 595 tires, Soon it will have coilover suspension.
    Interior is stock and has no rear seat for now. It has changed some since I bought it in Oct of 2014.
    It was a BP with E Series when I bought it, it's progress to G series, then turbo with an Mfactory.
    I still have some plans in place that we are working on to make it even faster.





    Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

        An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.

                    I've seen changes are coming. I'm excited to see what it does at the track too. Such a nice little car.

                    Does it still have ac?
