Car description

With its factor-correct stellar color combo, this 1961 Ford Thunderbird is rolling opulence. From the big V8 under the hood, to the individual-focused interior, this is your opportunity to own a piece of the vintage luxury lifestyle at a terrific price.
The bullet-nose birds are a true styling marvel. These third-generation cars were more Lincoln than Ford, and they were happy to showcase it. You see it in all the styling touches like the premium hardtop profile, fender skirts, and how the chrome front bumper is an integral part of the styling. Plus, there's the crisp trim line that starts in front of the headlights, runs the full length of the body (expertly integrating the door handles,) and it doesn't stop until it reaches the afterburner-style taillights. It sets the tone for the car and makes this a true cruising legend, right down to the wire wheels. Not only can you see all of this so well because the panels are quite straight, but also the factory-correct Raven Black provides a terrific contrast. It received a professional respray later in life, so you have a factory black car that still retains a nice gloss today.
Arguably there's nothing better than a red interior against a black exterior to convey both premium and boldness. And this T-bird was born this way! Just like the exterior, the there's plenty of brightwork trim, and it looks highly original and complete. Even the Am radio is still cranking out tunes in this very vintage total presentation. We especially love the anodized aluminum that flows like water seamlessly from the door panels to the dash, and then it cascades down the center to form the console. Even the steering wheel matches this color theme, and beyond that are jewel-like gauges. The whole presentation fits with this idea of rolling luxury. Because of this, everyone gets individual bucket-like comfort, even the contoured rear seats.
Under the hood is a correct presentation. The golden air topper and matching Thunderbird valve covers look nice in this dark engine bay. Plus, you have nice details in everything from proper decals to the correct washer fluid bag. And this is even believed to be the original motor. Ford's large 390 cubic-inch V8 and a four-barrel carburetor created the right kind of power for the Thunderbird. The Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes all work in harmony to help keep the ride luxurious.
This is one of the coolest looking Thunderbird generations, and this coupe was born with one of the coolest color combos around. So if you love distinct vintage luxury, don't miss this deal. Call now!
