1966 Ford Thunderbird

The fourth generation of the T-bird was a large personal luxury car produced by Ford from 1964-1966. They were restyled in favor of a more squared-off formal look. The standard powertrain was the 300 HP 390 Cubic inch engine but a optional 345 HP 428 cubic inch was offered making this big heavy cruiser quite a rocket.

This wonderful and quite rare Bird we are pleased to offer is one of very few 428 convertibles. It is reported that 5066 convertibles were made that year with only 74 of those convertibles offered the 428 cubic inch engine option. This car is also equipped with air conditioning and cruise knows as highway pilot, which a reported only 1% of the T-birds were equipped.

In addition to this rare offering, the car has had been completely and meticulously maintained. It is mechanically excellent as is the body, paint, top and interior. The car starts up perfectly and goes down the road with ease. The power top performs as it should. From 2011 through 2013 when the mechanical restoration was performed an estimated $20,000 was spent on the motor, exhaust, brakes, shocks, fuel system, leaf springs, tires and wiring.

This is a must have for anyone in the collector car hobby.
