I purchased my first Thunderbird, a 94 LX 4.6, while going to college after I got off active duty in the US Army. Kept it through graduation and it followed me to my first coaching job in Temple, Tx. Unfortunately it had a disagreement with a deer between Lampasas and San Saba on a trip back home to San Angelo. So I said goodbye to it and in the years since have had a variety of different vehicles. After retiring from coaching/teaching I wanted to get into something that ran pretty good, was a little less demanding than the Pontiac G8 GT ticket machine I had, and wouldn't be a payment. The picture of my 94 with the deer damage reminded me how great a car it was, especially on the highway. So I found a really clean opal white 1996 LX 4.6 with about 95,000 miles. Not perfect, but as a retired football coach I needed projects anyway. Researching one of them I came across TCCoA, where I learned about this place. Good to be here!
