1966 Ford Thunderbird Town Landau
“Ford's Thunderbird started out as an American interpretation of a European sports car, but within a few years, it began evolving into a very American statement in the form of a personal luxury car with big V-8 power. Those early, sporty two-seat "small birds" gave way to the larger, more substantial "square birds". By late 1960, the Space Age-inspired 1961 "bullet birds" arrived and spent three years on the bestseller's list… The Thunderbird grew yet again for the 1964 to '66 model years.” -Hemmings
This 1966 Thunderbird Town Landau is finished in Honeydew Yellow with a Sage Gold vinyl roof over a white interior featuring the iconic rear wrap around seat. Power is provided by a 390 cubic inch V-8 motor which was factory rated at 315 horsepower and is mated to a smooth shifting three-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes power front disc brakes, power steering, power windows, swing-away steering column, power driver's seat and sequential rear turn signals. The Thunderbird is running on older whitewall tires which will require replacement.
Spending many years in Florida, the body and underside of this Thunderbird are very solid, with no signs of corrosion. Although an older respray the Honeydew paint shows well with no signs of excessive wear.
The carburetor was recently rebuilt and the car now comes to a quick start and smooth idle. After sitting dormant for the last few years this Thunderbird may require some tuning and fluid changes to provide for a trouble-free classic vehicle.
