Vehicle Description
With its full gold and chrome presentation, this 1963 Ford
Thunderbird is rolling opulence. From the big V8 under the hood, to
the full power features of the interior, this is your opportunity
to own a piece of the vintage luxury lifestyle at a terrific
price.
The bullet-nose birds are a true styling marvel. These
third-generation cars were more Lincoln than Ford, and they were
happy to showcase it. You see it in all the styling touches like
the premium hardtop profile, fender skirts, and how the chrome
front bumper is an integral part of the styling. Plus, there's the
crisp trim line that starts in front of the headlights, runs the
full length of the body (expertly integrating the door handles,)
and not stopping until it reaches the afterburner-style taillights.
It sets the tone for the car and makes this a true legend. Not only
can you see all of this so well because the panels are amazingly
straight, but also the factory-correct Castilian Gold received a
professional respray later in life to make sure it all shines like
precious metal.
Inside, the gold interior coordinates nicely with the exterior to
give the full premium appearance. It has the kind of cool seat
color that could only come from the '60s, but it also has a subtle
elegance of good stitching and complementing hues. So you know
there was also a solid investment here. Just like the exterior, the
gold is supplemented by plenty of silver-style trim, including the
anodized aluminum that flows like water seamlessly from the door
panels to the dash, and then it cascades down the center to form
the console. Even the steering wheel matches this color theme, and
beyond that are jewel-like gauges. The whole presentation fits with
this idea of rolling luxury. Because of that, the T-bird also came
loaded. This retains its factory-correct luxury with power windows,
the factory AM radio, and provisions for factory air conditioning.
Even the famous Swing-Away steering column is there to make
entering this classic hardtop a breeze.
Ford's large 390 cubic-inch V8 and a four-barrel carburetor created
the right kind of power for the Thunderbird. Advertised with 300
horsepower on tap, it moves this cruising coupe around with ease.
The engine bay follows the same theme as the interior and exterior.
So not only is it quite tidy, but also you have a golden air topper
and bight polished valve covers. It fires up nicely with an
authoritative hum out of the dual exhaust that seems perfect for
this mature T-Bird. The Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission,
power steering, and power brakes all work in harmony to help keep
the ride luxurious.
