Classic Car Overview

This 1969 Ford 500 XL Convertible is finished in Dark Aqua Metallic with a white convertible top and black vinyl interior with wood trim throughout, a combination that is striking, period-correct, and well suited to a full-size open-top car of this era. Under the hood is the 429 cubic inch Thunderjet V8 producing 360 horsepower through a four-barrel carburetor, backed by the three-speed SelectShift Cruise-O-Matic automatic. The 429 Thunderjet was brand new for 1969, part of Fords all-new 385 engine family that was engineered from a clean sheet and shared almost nothing with the 428 Cobra Jet it ran alongside in the lineup despite their nearly identical displacement. It is a big, torquey, smooth engine that moves a full-size convertible with the kind of effortless authority the XL was designed around.

The 1969 500 XL was Fords most significant redesign of the full-size performance lineup in years, arriving on an all-new longer wheelbase with a completely new body and the SportsRoof and convertible as the only available body styles. Fords own advertising called it the sportiest, best-handling Ford XL in history and dared buyers to drive it and find out. The convertible was the rarer and more desirable of the two body styles, and in Dark Aqua Metallic with the 429 four-barrel it represents the top of what the 1969 500 XL offered.

This car has been gone through comprehensively and the work list speaks for itself. A new convertible top, new exhaust, new starter, new ignition coil, plugs, wires, brakes, water pump, hoses, thermostat, rear brake lines, fuel filter, fuel sending unit, front brake hoses, brake booster, and new convertible top hydraulic cylinders have all been addressed. This is not a car that has been polished up for photographs. It has been properly serviced and sorted from one end to the other.

A Dark Aqua 429 XL convertible that has been mechanically refreshed throughout is the kind of find that does not stay available long once the right buyer sees it.
