Vehicle Description
The 1966 Ford Thunderbird, part of the fourth generation of
Thunderbirds produced from 1964 to 1966, is notable for being the
final year of this generation. This vehicle was owned locally in
the village of Burr Ridge and features a powerful 390 cubic inch
(6.4-liter) V8 engine, producing 315 hp and 427 lb.-ft of torque.
It offers approximately 12-15 mpg and comes with a 3-speed
Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission. The interior is a striking
two-tone combination of Madison gray and blue carpeting, complete
with original Thunderbird floor mats. It includes a swing-away
steering wheel for easier entry and exit, and is in great shape
with no cracks or tears. The inner chrome trims shine nicely. And
all interior features work from the heat, to the windows and power
seat. Something to note is the radio does not pick up many
channels. The exterior is in great condition all lights work
accordingly, with solid paint, dent-free body, and well-polished,
rust-free chrome bumpers and trim. The signature sequential turn
signals add a classic touch that were a stand out feature with
these cars. The underside of the hood insulation is in excellent
shape, a common area of wear in these cars. The vehicle also comes
with a car cover and a removable fiberglass tonneau cover, both in
good condition. This Restoration was done about 4-6 years ago.
Paint is matching both inside, out and the same colored top.
Vehicle has brand new radial tires, and the most recent service was
replacing the hydraulic cylinders for the convertible top which
comes with a 5 year warranty from Mr. Trim. Vehicle is a ac car but
most likely needs a recharge. This 1966 Ford Thunderbird would make
a great show car!
