Gateway Classic Cars is extremely fortunate and proud to offer this
1966 Ford Thunderbird in our Houston Showroom. This one is a
particularly rare model as it is a true Q-code car. There were
5,049 convertibles built in 1966, out of those 74 only had 428 CID
345 HP V8 with factory air condition. Most know that 1966 was a
year of lasts: the last convertible, the last unibody, and to some,
the last of the classic Thunderbirds. This car is a true
collector's item that would fit nicely into anyone's garage. The
428 CID V8 was the same motor that was put into the same year
Shelby Mustang. The 428 V8 in this car is its original numbers
matching car that had a rebuild 3 years ago. That powerful rare V8
is paired to the C6 3-speed automatic transmission that was also
rebuilt 3 years ago. This Tbird has gone through a mild restoration
including a fairly new professional paint job approx.. 3 years ago
that was done very well. The convertible white top is in great
condition and looks awesome in contrast to the fresh blue paint.
All exterior trim, bumpers, emblems, & original wire hub caps are
also in excellent condition for their age. Looking at the timeless
& classic interior you will find the original dark blue vinyl
interior that is overall great condition. This car's interior is
truly unique and shows the character of the thunderbird. From the
large center console that leads into the chrome & wood dash to the
spacious and rounded rear seats. You can't find a look like this
these days so be the one who stands out. The convertible top
operates well to open & close the top of the car. Other features on
this Tbird include factory AC, AM/FM radio, power brakes, power
steering, power seats, power windows, telescopic wheel. For more
