Vehicle Description
This 1962 Ford Thunderbird has proper V8 power, fun vintage
features, and a cool black and white total package. So when you can
pick up one of the most distinctive T-bird generations around for a
terrific price, you know you need to dig into the details of this
deal.
You can see from a distance that the coupe has timeless appeal with
its white body and black roof. So people will be instantly
attracted to the car well before you park it. There's also a more
modern clearcoat luster to give this two-tone added appeal. Even
the whitewall tires are part of the black and white appeal. These
third-gen T-Birds are also for the detail lovers, and this one
doesn't disappoint. The front end is all about the hood, bumper,
and grille creating an integrated look that sharply cuts the
traffic ahead. The full-length trim is a hallmark of these stylish
machines, and it's complete here as it hides the door handles and
creates a swoopy style that ends in a hint of tailfin. The rear
continues this awesome style with large taillights that light up
like afterburners.
Inside is more of that black and white appeal. In fact, the seat
upholstery is fresh from the last few years, so it feels nice and
fresh. The rest of the interior feels quite original, and that's a
good thing in a Thunderbird. After all, this premium Ford was born
with some great stylized and luxury features. Everyone gets
individual bucket-like comfort, and the power driver's seat means
yours easily adjusts to the ideal position. Plus, power windows let
you easily and quickly show off the pillarless hardtop profile.
There are also provisions for factory features like power locks and
the AM radio. The wraparound dash and artful factory gauges are all
part of the 1960s cruiser experience, so it's always great to find
a T-bird as complete as this one.
This was born a Z-code coupe, so it's great to still have a big 390
cubic-inch V8 filling in the engine bay. Plus, the golden
Thunderbird valve covers are freshly painted, and so they really
grab attention when you open the hood. The consignor states the V8
was rebuilt within the last three years, and it certainly fires up
and runs with the right kind of confidence. There are also upgraded
components, like the distributor, intake, and Edelbrock four-barrel
carburetor. The three-speed automatic transmission was also part of
the investment in this coupe, and so it has the smooth operation
you want in a Thunderbird. There's are more nice driving features,
like power steering, updated power brakes, and modern tread behind
those classic whitewalls.
The appeal of this Thunderbird is as clear as black and white
(literally). So don't miss this deal, call today!
