Years ago I paid $500 for a 1978. It had weeds growing up through the engine bay. It also at one time had an engine fire, but after some time and another battery it started.

Here is some possible reason for the blue gasoline, posted on Quora. "Aviation gas is blue (100 octane). Some branded race fuel is blue. Sometimes when you mix oil with gasoline for a two-stroke engine (say, lawnmower) the mix will end up bluish. And sometimes distributors will tint seasonal gasoline blends a certain color to allow stations to tell the difference between summer and winter gas."

About the poop (in case someone was really wondering): the solids are processed biologically in what is called a "digester" (a big tank full of poop-eating bacteria). The result of the digestion is no longer "poop" and, when dried, makes an excellent fertilizer. For obvious sanitary reasons, farmers do not dump unprocessed human poop on the fields, but this digested organic material instead, which is biologically safe.

It was a V-8. 302 Windsor. The hubcaps were like a turbine shape. It was the same body as the one in the video. I miss those cars :)

"You can shut the gate on this one Maxie". Love that scene too, one of the first movies I got on DVD, every time I watched the whole way through I probably rewatched the garage scene twice and opening scene four times.

I grew up around 1977-1982 Ford Thunderbirds because those were my dad's favorite cars to drive at the time. The years he drove these T-birds was from 1986-1999. He sold his last T-bird in 2000, after that he drove pickup trucks from then to the present time. I was 13 years old when he sold his '82 T-bird in 2000. I miss my dad's old cars!

That was the same model as my second car. It was a fun driver, and really comfortable for trips. Mine came without a motor, so I dropped in a 351W/C4 with mild stall, then swapped to a high revving 302 later on.I learned a lot on that car. Side note: turns out some of the ideas I tried on that car came from David Frieberger and Steve Dulcich, back when they were both fairly new to their careers.

That is the twin to the one I had.. what a fabulous car, I did all the suspension, brakes, and it was great until the engine seals started leaking. I was in no position to fix them at the time, so I gave the car to a young fella and his wife. It had the 260, which was weak, but good enough for a cruiser. Such comfort inside, it was my 3rd Tbird, and probably my favourite to date.

Here in Canada, poop goes to the landfill. For a few years I ran a rolloff truck and we had a contract with a local municipality. All the solids go into a (mostly) sealed “grit bin”. I’d have to pick it up and bring it to the landfill where they would kindly have a hole already opened up for me to dump in. As SOON as if was dumped they fill the hole over. ONE SINGLE drop gets on your clothes, you’ve assuredly ruined your whole day. Silver lining… you have a very wide berth from any other motorist on the highway… one sniff and they all scatter.

That's actually a 255, which is why the intake looks funny. A recurve on the distributor is about all that's worth doing to it. I'd offer to buy it but I'm halfway across the country. The 302 came back in '83 with a different body style.

i like how the headlights just closed on start up. A bit of love and attention and that thunderbird is perfect for a drive :D

Love these cars getting revived and back on the road again. Keep it up guys 👍

Had a 1982 Ford Fairmont and a 1980 Fairmont, same chassis and body. Loved those cars, but they had the indestructible I-6 200. I knew you were going to be able to burn some rubber because I could do it with a 6 cylinder. Mook is great, love her, I wish my girlfriend was like her.

12:48 Solids are spread on a sludge drying bed. When dry, the material is scraped up and transferred to a landfill.

One of my most favorite cars I ever owned was my 1978 Ford Thunderbird w/ 351 Windsor V8, Automatic trans, split bench front seat. White with mauroon interior and half vinyl roof. I got it used in mint condition in 1988 and drove it until the early/mid nineties when an idiot plowed into the back of me at a red light.

I had a new 81 Heritage coupe. It was a classy beautiful car. Here it is 23 and many new cars later. My new top line Escape with leather etc. can't come close to those Recarros back then. I miss that car.

Mook wanted you to acknowledge that pitchfork so bad 😂 no dice

I had one of these years ago. It was my first car. A good runner, for sure.

DUDE! I had the same car! Red 1982 Ford ThunderTurkey. The guy I bought it from took out the blown 302 and put in a 351 W and a 9 inch. It was a hoot!

You got it FREE?!? Dang! Best I ever did on a garage cleanout was paying scrap price ($15) for a '65 Merc Park Avenue 4 door hardtop back in '79. That 390 ran great after I replaced the cracked distributor cap. (used distributor cap cost me a whole dollar) Traded that Merc even across for for a '76 Ford Fairmont, 302 factory police interceptor engine, that had a loose battery ground cable at the engine, about 2 months later.

Mad Dog Tannen: "YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK - I THINK YOU'RE A GUTLESS YELLA TURD!" 1982 T - Bird: "Why yes, yes I am."

Nice. Reminds me of a 79 T bird my great uncle Lee had. It's in the junkyard now

Mook is cool.shes down for any chalange dirt or any thing she digs in.whst a greate trooper

NICE WORK TEAM. The 5.0 was withdrawn for 1982. There were five variations between 1980 to 1982, and Fox 255 cubes had a market distination variation with CFi only if it was a 302. Its not MCU, not Central Fuel Injected, not Duraspark III, not Variable Venturi, and it is certainly the 4.2 liter 119 hp D code. The intake is designed for the 2150 Motorcraft, so it has a throttle solenoid positioner missing. The 255 cube engine is very sweet. Its heads are equal to the first two years K code 271 hp 289 engines. For the D code, you just need to have the right ported, manifold and spark advance and upper AOD kickdown and Cruise control linkage. Its propably a C5 three speed.

You and Miss Mook are awesome. Don't ever stop doing what you guys do. These memories you are making will last forever and you two will grow stronger together because of it. Just curious though do you think you and Vise grip garage will ever make a video together? I dunno a fellah was just thinking that would be pretty cool lol.

@@nakedzebra67 It's a Fox chassis under: 78-83 Fairmont/Zephyr 79-94 Mustang/Capri 80-94 Thunderbird/Cougar 81-82 Granada 84-(85? 86?) (small) LTD, (small) Marquis I can't remember for sure, but I'm pretty sure the Lincoln Mark VII was a Fox-body too. Even when the newer SN95 platform rolled out, it was essentially an 'updated' version of the Fox, and IIRC there was an awful lot of interchange.

I didn’t take the time to go through your comments, but the blue fuel could very well be aviation gasoline. Is is commonly referred to as avgas 100LL (100 octane low lead) nd is used in all piston engine aircraft. It is blue in color so that on a pilot’s preflight he can quickly determine that the proper fuel was put in the tanks and he can sample the fuel for contamination, sediment, water, or misfueling. It has a shelf life of many many years. The only slight downside is that it still contains lead (2 grams per gallon) Which is used to prevent detonation and preignition events in our air cooled engines. That said, it is 100 octane so it does great in vehicles. It is really good for equipment that is going to sit around for a long time. At small town local airports it is very common for them to sell blue avgas for race cars because of the high octane and stable shelflife. Hope this helps.

What a difference 4 years makes. My father had an '86 Turbo Coupe and it was no way near as fugly as this T-Bird. Think it had a 2.3L turbo and it was pretty quick for its day (at least we thought it was by the time we drove it).

I love the orange ford in the back!!!

The poop becomes "bio solids" and yes it goes on farm fields and in that bag of potting soil you bought at the hardware store.

Yep, the stuff is called Milorganite. Little black granules of human waste that you spread on your lawn. Smells like poop but greens up the lawn real nice.

Bought a 1980 t bird from my dad's company, drove it from CT to mass to get it home. Picked up a speeding ticket. Wasn't use to such a nice riding vehicle

It could be a 255, Ford's answer to government fuel economy regs.

If it's the original engine, it's a 255. For 1982, the 302 was dropped and the 255 was the only V8 offered.

I had a 255 in my 80 mustang back in high school. It leaked three quarts of oil a week, but it had this nice way of alerting you when it needed oil. All the lifters would start to clatter and slap, then you just dump in a few quarts of whatever was on clearance and it was good to go.

In 1982 the 4.2 liter (255 cid) engine was the only V-8 available. I think they also had the 3.8 V-6 that year as well.

Your poop goes into the ground and eventually turns into oil over like millions of years and stuff like 1982 ford thunderbirds are made

I've always liked that body style, although not as much as the '83-'84. I believe that is the same color as the '90 Grand Marquis my grandmother had. Wood Rose.

They literally bury the poop for the most part. After being treated, they send the solids to the landfill. In some gases, they use the gasses it produces to produce electricity, and sometimes its used as fertilizer. After being treated and the harmful bacteria is removed, of course. 😅

t1mpetti never pity the mook. She shall get revenge, like you said.

the blue gasoline is two stroke mix. old trick for covering running issues on lean running engines. if this is not the case, your primary pump is returning engine oil mixed with the old gas back into the fuel tank.

I had one of these TBirds, black with red interior. It was loaded for its day. It was great.
