Vehicle Description
With its big 390 V8, plenty of luxury features, and a great color
theme, this 1966 Ford Thunderbird Landau delivers that ideal style
you demand from a T-Bird. And as you look over the details, a few
key upgrades - including electronic fuel injection - are all the
difference to make sure you can still enjoy this as a premium
cruiser.
This was born a Silver Mink coupe, and while that's a distinctive
color, this one turns it up a notch. It was resprayed later in life
to give it a radiant glow in the sunshine. So you get the same tone
as the factory intended, but when the sunlight hits the body, this
one has a fresher style that knows how to really attract some
eyeballs. Good-looking sheet metal and bright chrome bumpers
complete the look of vintage elegance. We love the look of the
special Landau coupe because it has the B-pillar ornamentation that
gives it a classic style, and T-birds are all about nostalgia. And
this vintage elegance is in all the right details, including the
rear fender skirts, turbine-style wheel covers, and full black
vinyl roof.
The roof not only looks good, but it also is a preview of the
interior color. You can tell these 4th gen cars were about
demonstrating personal luxury with bucket seats for everyone,
including the rear. There's even a beautifully intricate texture to
the cloth upholstery. But the driver is always the most important,
and the way the wood-like center console is formed around you makes
sure everyone knows it. The gauges have the look of a designer's
touch. This has a ton of distinct premium features, including a
power driver's seat, an overhead console, and air conditioning.
You'll even love the details, like the working courtesy lights and
the classic swing-away steering column. There's room for
improvement, including servicing the power windows. But overall,
this one continues to uphold the upper-class classic you expect
from a Thunderbird.
The 390 cubic-inch V8 was a great pairing with the T-bird, and it's
the correct displacement for this Z-code coupe. It has been brought
into the modern era with electronic fuel injection. Now the motor
warms up to be a solid cruiser that idles smoothly and runs strong.
Plus, the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power
brakes, and front discs can make this classic feel like an ideal
all-day cruiser.
The sale comes complete with nice extras like maintenance records,
component catalogs, spare components, and an EFI controller.
Thunderbirds have always represented style, but this one also
presents good value for an interesting classic driver. Call
