Ford Thunderbird Starting in the 1950s, this was a classic American sports cars, from the compact original of the 1950s, to the muscular hard top coupes of the 1980s and 1990s to the retro look of the 2003 model year, this car is, and always will be, an American classic.

Default Front end vibration around 45-55 mph

I have a 1966 T-Bird. Recently, both the engine and tranny have been rebuilt. Now there seems to be a vibration in the front end when I reach about 45 - 55 mph. It feels like it is in the front end (I can feel it in the steering wheel). The driveline seems to be tight and I have had the tires balanced. Any other suggestions??? Thanks in advance.

Driveshaft balance can affect it also. When older the weights can crack loose and fly off. Checking the balance wouldn't hurt. If it's in the front - do you have front drum brakes?
