When it first debuted as a complete redesign, the tenth-generation
Thunderbird introduced a new platform and a fresh take on the
model's 'personal luxury car' motto. This 1990 Ford Thunderbird
Super Coupe comes fully repainted in a vibrant red, accentuating
the SC's ground effects and embossed rear bumper and trick deck
spoiler, which reminds everyone that SC can also stand for
'supercharged'.
Inside, we find a Medium Titanium cloth interior. A center console
separates a pair of sport bucket seats with inflatable bolsters. A
four-spoke power-assisted wheel sits ahead of an SC-specific
six-pod gauge cluster that features a unique center-mounted boost
gauge, smartly positioned just above the fuel gauge. An upgraded
Alpine AM/FM/CD/AUX head unit offers far more entertainment options
than the original unit it replaces. A power sunroof, windows,
locks, and seats, along with air-conditioning and cruise control,
provide plenty of modern amenities.
Pop open that expansive hood, and we find an overhead valve
3.8-liter supercharged and intercooled V-6 engine. Thanks to its
Eaton roots-type blower, stout iron block and lightweight aluminum
heads, this supercharged six was able to pump out an impressive 210
horsepower and 315 pound-feet of torque when it rolled off the
assembly line three and a half decades ago. That power is routed
through a Ford AOD four-speed automatic transmission before being
sent to the limited-slip rear end. A set of sixteen-inch alloy
wheels shod in 225/60R-16 Firestone tires put all that power to the
pavement.

the low 7-second range and cover the quarter mile in the
mid-15-second range. This three-owner car comes with an owner's
manual and numerous maintenance receipts, indicating that it has
been well cared for over the years. If you're one of the many who
