Martin according to NASCAR Ford teams would still be able to use
Thunderbirds for 2 years.  But like a report I read why would Ford
want teams running a product they no longer sell?  I have a feeling like
that report stated the Taurus is probably going to be the choice.  At
least till the Thunderbird is re-introduced.  Ford announced that Monday
also but didn't have any ideas how many years it will be before they
re-introduce it.  L8er.
