Description of 1963 Ford Thunderbird 2 DOOR HARDTOP

Located in Washington DC. This is a beautiful car with period details and room to customize it to your individual taste. The car was purchased as a barn find from El Paso, TX and completely restored over the past four years.

Just invested 5k to make sure the car is road ready.

2000 miles on rebuilt engine and transmission

Averages 17 MPG on the freeway

New gas tank

Completely new interior—including headliner, seatbelts and thunderbird floor mats

Car was re-painted to resemble its original factory color in 2012; has some chips and scratches

Completely rebuilt brake system

New carburetor (will give you original carburetor as well)

Heater (but no A/C compressor)

New radiator servo tank

Flowmaster exhaust

New shocks

Two sets of wheels (original with new tires and aftermarket with 50% tread left.

All four power windows operate from center console (no rear switches)

Power steering (also rebuilt)

RUST: Originally the car was from El Paso TX, so only rust issues are 2 inch spot in the battery box and less than half of a dime spot in trunk—rare for a 53 year-old car.

CHROME: Chrome has some pitting.
