Thunderbird convertible presents itself well with the Rangoon Red
paint and contrasting white interior. A custom "Sports Roadster"
package was added along with the Kelsey-Hayes wire wheels,
continental kit and deck-mounted luggage rack. It is powered by the
315 hp 390 V-8 and Cruise-o-Matic transmission. Other features
include power steering, brakes and windowsThe Thunderbird was
restyled in favor of a more squared-off appearance, which was
mostly evident when viewing the car from the side or rear. Hinting
at its roots in the previous generation Thunderbird that it evolved
from, the new model retained a similar grille design with dual
headlights and a 113.2 inches wheelbase. The 300 horsepower 390 cu
in FE V8 continued as the standard engine for the Thunderbird. It
was paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission.For 1965,
sequential turn signals were added, flashing the individual
segments of the broad, horizontal tail lights in sequences from
inside to outside to indicate a turn. Also new for 1965 were
standard front disc brakes, and doubled sided keys.
