Ford-Ferrari Mashup Is Either A Really Expensive Thunderbird Or Cheap F40

Mention Ford versus Ferrari to the average car enthusiast, and they'll likely think of the iconic 1966 battle at Le Mans between the GT40 and 330 P3. The vehicle featured here is a very different kind of Ford/Ferrari matchup, and by that, we mean a mashup. Is there a winner in this curious one-off creation? We'll let you, dear reader, decide that.

As such, allow us to be the messenger for this very curious find on Facebook Marketplace. This is a 1990 Ford Thunderbird, and despite the extensive Ferrari-themed body modifications, it's still very much a T-Bird. Actually, it's a Thunderbird Super Coupe, packing a supercharged 3.8-liter V6 connected to a five-speed manual transmission that drives the rear wheels. In the world of obscure 1990s performance, it's actually a rad ride with a devoted following. Back in the day, it made 210 horsepower – 15 shy of the V8-powered Ford Mustang. These days, finding an SC with a five-speed isn't easy, and this one only shows 63,000 miles on the clock.
