1961 Ford Thunderbird
A 1961 Ford Thunderbird 2-door convertible finished in Crimson Red with a contrasting black convertible top, powered by a 390 V8 (6.4-litre) petrol engine paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive, five-seat configuration, odometer indicating 258,351 miles.
Description/Extras:
This fourth-generation Thunderbird is a striking example of early 1960s American luxury convertibles. It features the legendary 390 cubic inch V8 engine, smooth 3-speed automatic transmission, and only 25,835 miles on the odometer, indicating careful preservation. The interior is finished in pristine red leather with period-correct ribbed seating surfaces, original steering wheel, and full gauge cluster. Chrome detailing throughout remains bright, including dual headlights, prominent front grille, rear tail lights, and door handles.
Additional features include a fully functional removable hardtop, power steering, original radio, and factory build plate confirming authentic specifications. Minor surface wear consistent with age is present, slight weathering on the convertible top seams, minor cosmetic blemishes in the engine bay, and light patina on undercarriage metal work. Inspection is recommended.
