Vehicle description

HI I AM SELLING MY 1960 FORD THUNDERBIRD. THIS CAR IS TURN KEY AND GO. ALL OF THE WORK HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE. IT RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 352CI 4V V8 ENGINE. IT WAS RATED AT 300HP AND IT IS VERY DESIRABLE. IT ALSO RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL CRUISE-O-MATIC 3 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. IT STARTS RIGHT UP AND DOES NOT HAVE ANY UNUSUAL NOISES OR SMOKE. THE CAR PURRS LIKE A KITTEN. THE TRANS DOES NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES AS THERE ARE NOT ANY DELAYS WHEN PUTTING IT INTO GEAR AND IT SHIFTS VERY SMOOTH. I DO DOT SEE ANY LEAKING OR SEEPING OF ANY FLUIDS. THE BRAKES ARE HIGH AND VERY RESPONSIVE. I REPLACED THE BRAKES INCLUDING THE LINES RECENTLEY. THE EXHAUST IS NEW FROM FRONT TO BACK. THE CAR DRIVES DOWN THE ROAD STRAIGHT AND THERE ARE NO SUSPENSION NOISES.
THE EXTERIOR WAS REDONE 2 YEARS AGO. THE PAINT AND BODY ARE NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING. I AM TELLING YOU THE CAR LOOKS LIKE ITS STILL WET. THE CAR WAS PRODUCED WITH COLOR CODE "C" TURCOISE WHICH IN MY OPINION IS THE BEST COLOR; AND IT WAS REDONE IN ITS EXACT SAME COLOR. I HAVE NOT SEEN A PAINT JOB OF THIS QUALITY IN A LONG TIME. THE PANELS ARE RAZOR STRAIGHT; AND I MEAN RAZOR STRAIGHT. I HAVE GONE OVER THIS CAR MANY TIMES TO FIND SOME BONDO AND I CANT FIND ANY. HOWEVER I WOULD ASSUME THERE IS AT LEAST A MINOR AMOUNT SOMEWHERE. ALL THE SEAMS LINE UP BETTER THEN WHEN IT WAS NEW. THE CHROME AND STAINLESS IS IN GREAT ORIGINAL CONDITION. THE ROCKERS ARE EXCELLENT AND ARE NOT BONDOED UP. THE INNER WHEEL WELLS TEND TO GET SOFT. IN THIS CAR THEY ARE NOT SOFT AND ARE EXCELLENT. THE INNER DOOR JAMS FRONT, REAR, AND LOWER ARE PERFECT AND AGAIN THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF RUST NOT EVEN IN THE USUAL PLACES. THERE IS NO RUST, NO RUST BUBBLES OR ANYTHING ON THIS BODY. THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN IN THE PAST 2 YEARS AND THERE ARE A COUPLE SMALL CHIPS THAT I DID NOT TOUCH UP ON PURPOSE FOR THE PICTURES. ALL THE RUBBER APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND IS STILL EXCELLENT. THIS INCLUDES THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND REAR WINDOW. THE WINDOWS OPERATE WITH EASE AND THAT INCLUDES THE SIDE VENT WINDOWS.
THE TRUNK IS LINED AND I BELIEVE IT TO BE ORIGINAL AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THERE IS OF COURSE NO RUST IN THE TRUNK NOT EVEN IN THE USUAL PLACES. PICTURES SUPPLYED ON REQUEST.
THE UNDERSIDE IS EXCELLENT. THERE IS NO RUST UNDER THE CAR EXCEPT FOR SOME MINOR SURFACE RUST. I HAVE POKED A SCREW DRIVER ALL OVER THE UNDERSIDE AND I CANNOT FIND ONE SOFT SPOT. I AM NOT SURPISED BECAUSE NO ONE WOULD PUT THIS KIND OF MONEY IN IT IF IT HAD ANY. BECAUSE OF LIMITATIONS ON THE NUMBER OF PICTURES THEY WILL BE SUPPLED UPON REQUEST.
MOST OF THE INTERIOR; I BELIEVE TO BE ORIGINAL. THE SURPRISING THING IS THAT EVEN THOUGH ITS ORIGINAL; ITS NEAR PERFECT. THE SEATS DO NOT HAVE ANY RIPS OR TEARS. THE UPOLSTRY IS STILL SOFT AND VIBRANT. I DO BELIEVE, BUT NOT SURE THAT THE CARPET WAS REPLACED. ITS PERFECT. IF IT WAS REPLACED IT WAS DONE TO ORIGINAL. THE DOOR PANELS FRONT AND REAR AND THE KICK PANELS ARE EXCELLENT. THE DASH PAD IS ALSO EXCELLENT AND THERE IS NOT ANY DISCOLORATION. THE CHROME ON THE DASH, ALL OF IT (INCLUDING THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, THE RADIO SURROUND AND THE GLOVE BOX COVER) HAS BEEN EITHER REPLACED OR RECHROMED. I CANNOT PUT INTO WORDS HOW INCREDIBLE THE INSIDE OF THIS CAR LOOKS. ALL THE OTHER STAINLESS IS THERE AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE CENTER CONSOLE, ALTHOUGH I DONT KNOW FOR SURE IF ITS BEEN REDONE IS EXCELLENT AND DOES NOT SHOW ANY WEAR. EVERYTHING WORKS EXCEPT THE GAS GAGE AND CLOCK. ALL THE LITES WORK ON THE CAR INCLUDING THE DASH LITES AND INTERIOR LITES. THE ORIGINAL FACTORY RADIO STILL WORKS AS WELL.
OVERALL THIS CAR IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THIS CAR WILL WIN TROPHYS AT ANY CAR SHOW. I HAVE SEVERAL VIDEOS OF THIS CAR INCLUDING A VIDEO OF IT RUNNING. THEY WILL BE FORWARDED TO ALL HIGH FEEDBACK EBAYERS. ALL OTHERS MUST CALL FIRST.
