Cruisn Classics is proud to present this 1961 Ford Thunderbird that
represents the first year of the iconic "Bullet Bird" body style,
produced only from 1961 to 1963. Finished in black, the paint isn't
perfect, but it still presents well overall and highlights the
car's sleek, forward-leaning lines. It sits on stock wheels wrapped
in Coker Classic whitewall tires, giving it an authentic early-'60s
presence that stands out anywhere it goes.
Inside, the T-Bird shows very nicely with black leather-wrapped
seats, clean black carpeting, and a tight, well-kept headliner. The
dash pad has a small crack on the passenger side, but the rest of
the interior presents very well overall. The power windows work
great, all exterior lights function as they should (with the
exception of the rear seat dome light), and even the radio still
plays-making this a comfortable and functional classic to cruise
in.
Under the hood is Ford's strong 390ci FE V8 paired with the 3-speed
Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission. The car has been well
maintained mechanically, with recent updates including a new
distributor, plugs, wires, fuel pump, brake booster, master
cylinder, and rubber brake lines. The heat also works impressively
well. This first-year Bullet Bird is a stylish, well-kept classic
that's ready to be enjoyed.
