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?
Exterior and Interior
This 1966 Ford Thunderbird Convertible features a timeless white paint job, replete with a power-actuated soft top for those open-topped motoring vibes. We’re told that the motor for the convertible top has been replaced. Hence, you don’t need to worry about the fact that this car doesn’t have a hard top. You can also relax in the knowledge that the tires wrapped around the original wheels are merely two years old, so you need not worry about old and cracked rubber. The interior of this 1966 Ford Thunderbird Convertible is a pure Sixties time capsule. We’re told that the floorboards have been replaced, and that the air conditioning system has received a new compressor. The car includes features such as power windows, and the previously mentioned power-operated convertible top. There’s also a retro-modern radio with presets and AUX input. There’s also a roomy trunk behind the passenger cabin.
Engine
This 1966 Ford Thunderbird Convertible packs a 390ci V8 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission and powering the car’s rear wheels. The current owner tells us that the engine and transmission were rebuilt around the time of restoration. The car also includes power steering, and factory-installed disc brakes for sure-footed stopping power. Factory figures for this powertrain were around 315hp, so you can be assured of some sprightly acceleration. You’ll also appreciate the car’s long-distance cruising abilities, thanks to its comfortable suspension and smooth ride characteristics.
Inspection
The 1960 Ford Thunderbird Hardtop Coupe represents the final year of the second-generation Thunderbird, a model that helped establish Ford’s personal luxury car segment with its combination of stylish design, V8 power, and comfortable cruising capability. This example features a custom teal exterior with a matching teal interior, along with classic upgrades such as Kragar wheels, an aftermarket steering wheel, and a custom suspension setup that give it a distinctive appearance. Showing approximately 47,896 miles, this Thunderbird is equipped with desirable factory-style amenities including air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes, making it an appealing choice for enthusiasts looking for a uniquely styled early Thunderbird.
