Thunderbird Registry - support please
It's shameless plea time...
You've probably learned more than a few important things about your favorite classic Ford on the internet. The web can be an invaluable resource for documenting and sharing helpful information about classic cars. One of these resources is the "Thunderbird Registry", a 64,000+ strong searchable list open to all '55 to '05 Thunderbird's. http://tbird.info/ It's a database website created, maintained and financially supported by a single individual. If you've ever had to pay for 'new & improved' electronics just to keep up with ever-changing standards you'll correctly suspect this can be a significant burden. Unfortunately we may permanently lose public access to the T-Bird Registry without software upgrades for it's files. Please make a donation to help keep the history alive and available. https://www.gofundme.com/the-thunder...istry-upgrades You may search for a particular Thunderbird by it's serial / vin number, or scan thru the yearly rosters. The site also has a page full of special interest links for particular Thunderbird's in the registry. http://tbird.info/search.aspx If you own a Thunderbird and the page for it is blank or needs updating, you can provide information, anonymously if you wish. http://tbird.info/vinsearch.aspx I am not connected with the Thunderbird Registry in any way, and yes, I asked for permission to post this request.

Re: Thunderbird Registry - support please
I'm surprised there isn't more support here for what's a pretty good resource. I know there's 'bird owners on here.

Re: Thunderbird Registry - support please
Is this web site run by Dave Tulowisky (apologize on the spelling)?
He was always offering help to decipher vin codes on the early bird forum I used years ago. If so I will certainly contribute. Miker I am with you. I am surprised on lack of support. Dms, thanks for getting the word out - Bob three birds |

https://www.facebook.com/lovefords He also is the webmaster for the Cougar Club of America website. http://www.cougarclub.org/ I know David T has quite a large amount of baby bird information but I wasn't aware he has a website. Do you have a link for it? |

Re: Thunderbird Registry - support please
I don't believe Dave Tulowitzky has a website. Dave and I correspond somewhat frequently and through the VTCI Forum as both of us collect this kind of information for our respective clubs (Dave for CTCI ('55-'57), myself for VTCI ('55-'05)) and maintain databases for researching things such as color/interior/options usage. Dave keeps very tight control over what he has in part to maintain owner confidentiality.
The person who owns Thunderbird Registry is John Rotella. He has been doing this since the 1990s.
