Classic Car Overview
1962 Ford Thunderbird Hardtop For consignment, a 1962 Ford Thunderbird hardtop with a title verified 148,975 actual miles. Bullet birds, thanks to their sleek design, lend themselves to customizations, like this fully custom car. If owning one of a kind is on your bucket list, this one will do the trick! Exterior Cant miss Lime Green paint brightens this bird and is augmented by wildly reflective side trim on the custom side spears, hood stripes, and c-pillar trim, all bordered in red. A custom sculpted plate fronts the hood scoop and three velocity stacks face forward from an oval opening. Custom mirrors, bullet fronted door handles and window trim, recessed torpedo tail lights, all part of this feast for the eyes! The grille also features bullet details between dressed headlights and the 15-inch polished American Racing Torque Thrust wheels are complex works of art with bullet hubs, reflective inserts, and red line trim on white wall tires. The rears, however, are shrouded by the lime green fender skirt. Finally, faux side pipes add a stretch of chrome to the bottom. The paint, trim, and custom features are in great shape and we could not find any exterior imperfections. Interior More of that turned metal reflective trim occupies an insert in each door, surrounded by white vinyl panels and a black carpeted lower. White vinyl also covers the bucket seats and rear 2+2. Its bullets galore on the inside where there might be more full metal jacket trim pieces in here than in your gun safe, and these little chrome cones create a reflective sparkle in back and in the front where they sprout on the dash and center console. The rainbow reflecting turned metal trim is everywhere as well, including the steering wheel, accented with lime, and the gauge cluster, also featuring lime rings and buttons under a white dash pad. An AM radio and CD player are present along with added gauges in the center, while black carpet is protected by lime shag mats. Faux black fur is on the headliner with tribble-like hairballs in white and lime scattered throughout. Wild! And more attention to detail with lime rails and LED lights overhead. The trunk is kept relatively conservative with clean black carpeted mats and a spare white wall. Drivetrain Beautifully customized with lime and white paint plus anodized gold trim, here we have a show quality 390ci V8 with three 2-barrel Holley carburetors over an Edelbrock intake. Behind it resides a Cruise-O-Matic 3-speed automatic transmission sending power to the Ford 9 in back with 3.00 gears. Undercarriage Spotless and clean underneath, not a surprise! We have dual exhaust that runs through Magnaflow mufflers and terminates under the car. Power drum brakes are at all four wheels and suspension consists of coil springs up front and leaf springs in the back. No rust, no oil, no road dirt. Drive-Ability There are two ways to get instant notice in a car, sound and color and this one brightens up Morgantown the minute it leaves the mall to circle our test loop. The three carbs work together to deliver a smooth ride, and the car sounds nice as it accelerates forward, tracking straight and offering good turn-ins with its low center of gravity. Functionally, the A/C and clock are not working but all other operations do as intended. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase. This is an incredible custom build that is ready to hit the show circuit to collect its oohs and aahs from an adoring audience. Even if youre not a Thunderbird fan, this one will stop you in your tracks with its quality, coordinated touches. If you are a Thunderbird fan, this is one nobody else will have and will stop you in your tracks every time you open the garage door. 2Y83Z104988 2-1962 Y-Wixom, MI Assy Plant 83-Thunderbird 2 Door Hardtop Z-390ci V8 4bbl 300hp 104988-Sequential Unit Number WARRANTY TAG BODY 63A-Thunderbird Hardtop COLOR A-Raven Black TRIM 55-Red Vinyl DATE 14J-September 14th DSO AXLE 1-Ford 9 3.00 Conventional TRANS 4-Cruise-O-Matic Classic Auto Mall is home to more than 1,000 classic and collectible vehicles for sale via consignment in a climate controlled 336,000-square foot showroom (thats more than 8 acres!).
