EFI-equipped Thunderbird Coupe 390 V8 Automatic Air Conditioning
When it comes to collector cars, Thunderbirds are kind of like Camaros. It seems like almost everyone is drawn to either the first generation or the latest generation. Then again, when you have a legendary marque that's evolved through decades of unique and memorable models, it seems natural that some of them might get a bit overlooked. Possibly the most substantial victim of that unfortunate phenomenon is Ford's fashionable Flair Bird. Introduced in 1964 as a formal luxury coupe and convertible, this generation of Thunderbird celebrates the evolution of the market, and the marque, perhaps more than any other. And, not as derivative as the Retro Bird or as commonplace as the prototypical Early Bird, it brings welcome character to any pavement it chooses to roam! In the care of its first owner for the first 49 years of its life, this classy Flair Bird hardtop is a fully documented cruiser that's benefitted from careful restoration as needed. With a fuel injected 390, completely sorted mechanicals and a body that's fit for the Jet Age, it's the perfect weekend bruiser for anyone who enjoys getting a little fresh air out on the open road. And if you're looking for an awesome classic that's fun, attractive and ready to roll, you simply won't find more car for the money!
