The Thunderbird was one luxurious car, it was even sold to customers as a personal luxury car which essentially meant that the Thunderbird marque focused more on luxury than performance. Amongst all the great cars that sported the Thunderbird name, the third generation is what really stood out. It was the official Pace Car for the Indianapolis 500 as well as featured prominently in President John F Kennedy's inaugural parade. Owning one surely sets you apart wherever you go so why not check out this 1963 Ford Thunderbird Landau Coupe when you have the chance. Located in California and with a reported 96,251 miles on the clock this vintage beauty is a love letter to Sixties design and one that would look great in your driveway.
The third generation thunderbird is one car for the history books in terms of automotive design. It looked like it was out of a Sci-fi movie and sported a unique bullet-styled design on the car. This 1963 Ford Thunderbird Landau Coupe sports a maroon exterior and perfectly matches that unique Landau coupe body style which features a black vinyl roof on this car. What’s more iconic than the exterior color is the original 48 spoke Kelsey-Hayes designed wire wheels in place giving the car a real luxurious look on the road. The tires are also reportedly new and installed when the current owner purchased the car and has less than 100 miles on them. With its futuristic design cues, it’s hard to think anything could top it. That is until you've stepped inside this car, the interior is finished off in black and features wood accents all around the car. The wood and nickel on the car are in perfect shape looking shiny and new. The original swing-away steering wheel is also in place which was an industry first when released with the third generation. To ensure good times are no stranger in this car you get an aftermarket stereo system which was specifically made for a 1963 Ford Thunderbird. All you need to do is install it and cruise on by with some vintage tunes.
The third generation Thunderbird was in a class of its own with its unique design. To match those design cues the folks over at Ford sure needed an engine that could provide decent performance as well as be refined and provide a luxury feel. Providing all that in this 1963 Ford Thunderbird Landau Coupe is a 6.4 L (390ci) engine. The engine has seen a recent tune-up in July 2021 with new spark plugs being replaced around the same time as well. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed Cruise-O-Matic automatic gearbox. The current owner states that the engine and transmission are period correct but not sure whether they are original to the car. To provide a pleasant driving experience the car comes with power steering and power windows with all 4 windows reportedly functioning as well. To better experience and hear that old school V8 in action you get a new exhaust system installed which was reportedly replaced when the current owner purchased the car.

The Ford Thunderbird is the first American grand tourer, debuting for the 1955 model year. Billed as a Personal Luxury Car, the Thunderbird was meant to be a swift and luxurious conveyance for up to two adults, able to eat up long distances with grace and effortlessness. As time passed by, the Thunderbird gained a rear seat as well, and ran for ten generations. However, Ford created an eleventh generation between 2002 and 2005, as a homage to the original. Just over 50,000 examples were made, showcasing a healthy interest in the model. Today, cars like this 2004 Ford Thunderbird Pacific Coast Roadster are definitely head-turners and future classics. So, if you want to experience the retro-modern Thunderbird, this all-stock, 13,650-mile example is truly a rare find.
The Ford Thunderbird is what happened when America decided that they wanted some of that European Grand Tourer goodness. Led by Ford, American automakers created the Personal Luxury Car segment. These two-door coupes and convertibles came with potent engines, effortless cruising abilities, and the best luxury features of the time. They were designed for the well-heeled to buy and drive for long distances, emerging from their journey with minimal fatigue. This fourth-generation 1966 Ford Thunderbird Convertible is a prime example of what the segment could offer. Standing proud in our inventory, this car received a complete restoration around 15 years ago, we’re told by the current owner, who has owned this beauty for approximately two years. So, will you be its next custodian?
The maiden Ford Thunderbird was introduced as a competitor to the Chevy Corvette in 1955. However, it wasn’t marketed as a sports car but as an upscale, sporty, luxury car. It then continued to evolve into a larger car over ten generations until it was discontinued in 1997. However, after a five-year hiatus, the Thunderbird returned for one last time. This eleventh-generation Thunderbird went right back to its roots and was conceived as a two-door, two-seater, retro-themed convertible. Powered by a creamy smooth V8 motor, this last-gen Ford Thunderbird was produced only until 2005, thus marking the end of an iconic nameplate. This 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe Soft Top Convertible we have here is a pristine example with 29,000 reported miles on the odometer. It is a fully stock, original-owner car with two keys, a new battery, and new tires.
The 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible is a timeless classic that will forever dazzle this world with its legendary design and rich history. The success of this first generation Mustang is also the reason why the Chevrolet Camaro, Pontiac Firebird and Dodge Challenger were brought to life; these were truly the golden days of the Ford Mustang, asserting itself as the main player in the new “pony” car market. With only a total of 72,119 convertible units produced in 1966, it makes this model quite rare compared to the coupe and fastback models. The iconic pony's interior makes this particular example even more rare, with embossed running horses on the seatbacks, a five-gauge instrument cluster, and deluxe door panels with wood-grain accents. Clocking a total of just 33,000 miles on the odometer, this 1966 Ford Mustang is the perfect machine to cruise around with the convertible top down.
Ford’s epic Mustang was one of the headline cars of the Sixties. Debuting in 1964, it created the pony car segment and can be considered responsible for many automotive icons that followed in its wake. That’s why owning a first generation Mustang is a bucket list item for countless American enthusiasts. If you’re one of those, we’ve got a 1972 Ford Mustang up for sale right now. Packing a relatively light 61,000 miles on the odometer, this car is said to have been fully restored. Hence, it’s basically a turn-key classic that you can enjoy from the very start of your ownership journey.
The Ford Model T is the one for the history books. This was Henry Ford’s crowning glory, after all. It popularized the use of mass manufacturing techniques in automotive assembly, paving the way for today’s mega-factories over a century later. Over 14 million were made between 1908 and 1927, offering mobility and freedom to countless Americans. Of course, the Model T has also proved itself to be an interesting restomod platform. Up for sale is something a bit more outlandish than your typical Model T restomod. Say hello to the 1923 Ford T-Bucket. This custom special has around 7,100 miles on the clock and waits for a new owner to take it under their wing.
