$80,000 rotisserie restoration. From the very prestigious John
Woodhead lll Ford collection/museum. Only 850 miles since
completed. The Goldenrod yellow is certainly striking. It is a very
rare color not offered until late in production. This one is very
well optioned too with power steering, brakes and seat, auto trans,
convertible top and more.
EXTERIOR: Code V- Goldenrod yellow. This color pops! Very rare and
desirable, I have only seen a few. Those big white wall tires
wrapped around the wire basket hubcaps is gorgeous. The body was
professionally restored. It's straight and fits better than it did
when it was new. No rust. The paint is polished like glass but it
is over 20 years old and has some places where it is lifting. Every
single piece of chrome and trim has been restored or replaced. New
windshield and gasket. All new weatherstrips. The jambs are
meticulously restored. It has a genuine Ford convertible frame that
was restored like new. It has a rich black German cloth top.
INTERIOR: Meticulously restored down to the last little detail. I'm
looking at a pristine dashboard. All the lenses, gauges, knobs are
excellent. The steering wheel is restored, the horn ring is not
broken off like most. Correct two tone yellow and black upholstery
on the seats and door panels. The machine turned trim is excellent.
Handles and cranks have been replaced. Correct carpet was
installed. Has Thunderbird floor mats. Even the glovebox is
pristine, has fresh hardware, reproduction decals.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Completely disassembled down to the last bolt
and restored to concourse condition. It has the factory paint okay
stamps, proper decals, reproduction hoses and clamps, Ford washer
bag. 2 very desirable features include power steering and power
brakes. It also has the engine dress up kit which is a chrome air
cleaner lid, oil cap and finned aluminum valve covers. Wiring was
replaced. Every component was rebuilt. New battery with a topper to
look original.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Concourse condition. It has a matching white
wall on a yellow painted rim for a spare bolted down properly. The
jack is restored like new. Clean metal is all painted a smooth
glossy yellow. It has the proper rubber mat, the panels on the
sides and even the seat divider was replaced. It has jack
instructions, new weatherstrip and restored latch.
UNDERSIDE: Wow! The body was removed from the frame and flipped on
a rotisserie so the bottom could be restored as good as the top. No
undercoat, no rust. It is super clean metal painted gloss goldenrod
yellow. The frame was stripped and painted gloss black. Every
single component was restored. The entire front suspension and
steering was rebuilt. The rear suspension including springs,
shackles, bushings and shocks were replaced. The exhaust system is
stainless steel. The brakes were completely rebuilt. E-brake
assembly is complete. Looking up at the motor it is spotless. The
Ford-o-matic looks spotless. Fuel system was completely replaced,
the tank is shiny. Every single component was restored and
detailed. Every last bolt, clip and clamp looks new. Done to
concourse specs- correct oil filter, has tape on the body
bushings.
This would cost everybit of $100,000 to duplicate this level of
restoration today, plus the cost of the car. It is gorgeous as it
sits or just 2-3 thousand dollars would make the paint pristine
again. You will feel very proud to own and drive this jewel!
