1981 Press Photo Ford's 1982 Front-wheel Drive EXP, Two-seater Sportcoupe

Two-seater sportcoupe - The 1982 front-wheel-drive EXP - the first two-passenger Ford in a quarter century - is a fuel-efficient sportcoupe with handling characteristics and styling design to please driving enthusiasts. Although the EXP's size and sporty appearance are reminiscent of the classic two-passenger Thunderbird, Ford's newest model has a combination of high-technology features unheard of in the 1950's. The EXP standard manual four-speed tranaxle and 1.6-liter CVH engine have projected fuel-economy estimates of atleast 28 mpg (city) and 45 (highway).The EXP option list - limited because of the car's high level of standard equipment - includes a flip-up open-air roof, a premium stereo-radio sound system and leather or shearling-and-leather seating surfaces. The EXP will go on sale in April.
