The 1966 Ford Thunderbird was Detroit's answer to luxury
performance, built to turn heads while delivering smooth V8 power.
By the mid-60s, the Thunderbird had cemented itself as the
gentleman's muscle car-equal parts class and punch. This example
takes that factory DNA and dials it up with period-correct flair
and carefully chosen upgrades.
Under the hood, the 390 V8 gets some attitude thanks to an
Edelbrock aluminum intake, Holley carburetor, MSD ignition, and
ceramic-coated shorty headers feeding dual exhaust. The Ford
Performance chrome valve covers hint at what's lurking beneath,
while an Optima Red Top battery ensures reliable sparks every time
you twist the key. Paired with a C4 automatic, this bird flies with
effortless torque.
The exterior is a knockout in maroon accented by custom lace paint,
giving it the kind of 60s-style flash you'd expect cruising
Woodward Avenue on a summer night. Fender skirts, 15-inch steelies
with spider caps, and that sleek Thunderbird bodyline complete the
look of a classic boulevard bruiser.
Inside, you'll find the Thunderbird's signature blend of style and
comfort: bucket seats with a center console, tilt-away steering,
and an upgraded sound system to keep the vibes rolling. Power
steering, power brakes, and front disc brakes bring modern
drivability to this mid-century icon.
This Thunderbird embodies the best of its era. Style, power, and
personality. It's a rare opportunity to own a classic that's both a
tribute to Ford's vision of luxury performance and a head-turner
ready for weekend cruising or the next local show.
