This one of the rarest Thunderbirds made. The Mark T edition was
dealer installed from 1971-1973 and just a few made in 1970. It
included a custom made fiberglass hood and header panel, custom
bumper, headlights and a Lincoln Mark lll grill. The top was unique
as well. This one has only 68,617 miles and has been very well
cared for.
EXTERIOR: The body looks straight, rust free, damage free. The body
gaps line up real well. The fiberglass hood and header panel are
straight and fit right. It was completely repainted a beautiful
turquoise color. The metal flake is evenly laid out with a glossy
clear coat. The original alligator grain white vinyl top is in good
shape. The chrome and trim overall is very good. In front is an
actual Lincoln Mark lll grill. The bumper was completely cut and
modified. The plastic tail light lense is still real nice. It has
baby moon chrome wheels and Hankook radial tires.
INTERIOR: Unabused original condition. The dash area actually looks
pretty excellent. The lenses, gauges, the sparkling chrome,
woodgrain trim is pristine. It has one hairline crack on the dash
pad. Inside the glove box looks new, it has a power trunk release
and the owner's manuals. The original AM radio is in the dash but
there is a hidden stereo system. The white upholstery and door
panels are very nice condition considering their age. The headliner
and visors are real nice. No cracks in the steering wheel. The
carpet is excellent. Interior lights work.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Big 429 Thunderjet 4-barrel engine makes 360 hp
and 480 lbs of torque. It's sitting in a well maintained engine
compartment. Features include air conditioning, power steering and
power brakes. New alternator, battery is bolted down properly and
has a disconnect switch. It's not detailed but everything looks
proper and clean.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The trunk is giant and has rock solid original
metal. It has a full size spare and it's original jack. It has the
sideliner walls but the trunk mat is gone.
UNDERSIDE: I see what looks like a completely rust free underside.
There's no signs of rotten metal or patchwork, even the chassis
components are smooth clean metal. It does look like it's recently
been given new gas shocks, the dual exhaust also looks new. The
bottom of the motor is clean, not greasy. The starter looks new. It
has it's original C-6 automatic trans, original rear and still have
original tags. Front and components look clean. Disc brakes in
front, the emergency brake cables are still hooked up.
If you like unique, here you go! Certainly a conversation starter.
