We are proud to offer this lovely full size classic cruiser. The 1962 Ford Thunderbird's are some of the most striking cars of the early sixties era, the tail fins were phased away, an style and speed took over. Thunderbird always made a dramatic changed in styling, from the 1st Gen to the Square birds and again with the Bullet Birds. The third generation Thunderbird is the successor to the 1950's 'Square-bird.' The chassis remained very similar to prior models, but was reworked for a smoother ride and better handling. An all-new body-shell featured a crisply pointed front 'prow,' modest fins above huge renditions of Ford's round tail-lights, and a softer roof contour. For its time, the car offered exceptional soundproofing and overall quality. The Bullet Birds today are some of the Most Valuable of the Marque.
This 1962 Ford Thunderbird came to us from Palm Springs, Ca and was previously owned by a very meticulous couple. Both not only were Collectors but serious Car Enthusiasts as well and this vehicle was their personal car for when in the Desert, they drove it regularly, kept it rigorously maintained and prepared this vehicle to the highest standards before offering it for sale. This was the Crusie NIght Car it never left them stranded and it was their favorite car of the collection.
This vehicle was purchased at Keith McCormick auction in Palm Springs, Ca where reportedly a local resident spent $65,000 on restoration, the car has since had nearly $11,000 invested by the current owners to make sure this car is in Tip-Top Prime Condition.
It drives Extremely Smooth and Feels Extremely Comfortable and Safe. We have YouTube videos showing us on freeway and cruising down the road with power.
I cannot describe just how good it runs. We entered the car in the Coronado Parade for 2106 and took the sailor of the year and his family. After over 110 minutes of Slow Parade Driving the car continued to run fine with NO Overheating!!! That alone should tell you how well cared for this car is, in the direct San Diego Heat many of the cars couldn’t complete to event. This is a No Worries, NO Issues, and Very Dependable car.
This vehicle is equipped with a 300hp 390 V8 with Smooth shifting Cruise-o-matic. The Vehicle has Power Steering and Brakes, Driver Power Seat, Power Windows and Locks. Of course a Power Top and all components are working as they should. AM/FM radio and with Power Antenna works fine for your cruising pleasure. This car is as new as you can get.
The vehicle is finished in Chestnut Metallic with matching interior, Paint is Beautiful any flaws are minor. The Sports Kit was Dealer installed and correct in every way with all Sports Roadster features.
If you are looking of that one special car to be your cruise night car or show car this car could be the one for you. The drive is like living room sitting, the power is quite impressive and the luxury of the interior is breathtaking. This is simply put a wonderful car with everything in working order and no issues, you could get in this car and drive to New York if you wanted to.
