Vehicle Description
1961 Ford Thunderbird
Why This Car Is Special
You don't come across the early 60s Thunderbirds very often, much
less one in as nice of a color combination as this example.
These bullet-nose T-birds had plenty of style and this one has the
style and looks like it did when it was new with the big 390 cubic
inch engine, plush black interior package, and those great looking
wire wheels and whitewall tires to complete the vintage look.
