1962 Thunderbird
�Coupe
Very Nice Driver!
"The third generation Thunderbird is the successor to the 1950's
'Square-bird.' The chassis remained very similar to prior models,
but was reworked slightly for a smoother ride and better handling.
An all-new body-shell featured a severely pointed front 'prow,'
modest fins above huge renditions of Ford's round tail-lights, and
softer roof contours on the hardtops. For its time, the car offered
exceptional soundproofing and overall quality. Ford's burly 390 V-8
was the only engine offered for 1961, but a higher output 'M'
engine was offered for 1962-1963."

For sale by owner is this very nice Thunderbird coupe. According to
the current owner this Thunderbird is a combination of original
with some cosmetic and mechanical restoration as needed.� Please
let all the pictures load (there are over 120) to see the great
condition of this classic Ford!� We don't know all the details of
what was done over the years, as the owner purchased the car pretty
much as you see it. The body was professionally repainted Rangoon
Red, the exterior trim and chrome appear mostly original and in
good condition.� The 390 V-8 engine is long gone and has been
replaced with a Ford fuel injected 5.0 Liter V-8 from the mid 80's,
the transmission is the original automatic. The interior has been
redone with new seat covers and carpeting and the undercarriage is
solid, clean and dry. New brakes, master cylinder and an alternator
were installed within the last two years and it has modern coil
over shocks.
