Vehicle Description
In our Houston Showroom is a wonderful 1961 Ford Thunderbird
hardtop. The third generation of the Ford Thunderbird was a large
departure from the much more art deco styling of the second
generation T-Bird. The new personal luxury car from Ford featured
much more sleek body work. The taillights were reminiscent of
rocket boosters, showing the influence of the space race on design
at this period in American history. This particular vehicle is
colored in a wonderful and subtle Silver outside and black and
silver inside. The hub cabs and white wall tires just fit the look
of this Thunderbird perfectly. Under the hood is a very clean
engine bay filled with a Ford 390 CID FE V8 As you reach for the
door, you will notice that the handle has been very cleverly shaped
into the belt line of the car. Inside is the famous swing away
steering wheel. When the vehicle is in park, the wheel can be moved
18 inches to the right, allowing easier entry and exit. It has an
extremely modern minimalistic and comfortable interior. This
Thunderbird is ready to cruise the boulevard or to your local car
show with AC, power brakes, power steering, power windows, new
battery, new shocks, new exhaust and belts. To view this vehicle in
