Vehicle Detail

0 false 18 pt 18 pt 0 0 false false false Up for sale is a Nice Condition 1966 Ford Thunderbird 2-door Hardtop which my father bought while on vacation in 1978 in Naples, Florida. The car had belonged to the original owner who sold it due to her age at the time. Car had 80,317 miles at that time. I have the original paid invoice when she bought the car new. The car has been kept garaged year around here in Upstate NY, driven sparingly, and it has never been driven in snow. I inherited it in 1995, and have driven it very little, but held onto it for sentimental reasons. I’m hoping to find a car enthusiast who can really appreciate this car, put some work into it and take care of it. Now for my disclaimers: Please be aware that I have driven it VERY LITTLE and cannot say for certain what the car will need mechanically. It is being sold in “AS IS” condition. From the little that I’ve driven it, it has a smooth revving/running engine and transmission shifts smoothly. Last summer I took it in for an overall mechanical look-over, and had the following done: 1) new brake lines, 2) new fuel line, 3) brake booster replaced, 4) inspection of carb, but no work recommended., 5) front brake pads replaced. 6) new battery, 7) spark plugs and points replaced, 8) timing checked, 9) new master cylinder & right rear wheel cylinder, 10) parking brake check valve, 11) compression test. I have receipts for all work (over $2,000), as well as receipts for any work done on it since 1978.Features: 1) interior trunk lining fully restored, 2) tires were replaced and have very little wear, 3) car has never been in an accident, never been out in snow, 4) paint job except for the few chips mentioned is in Good condition (no rust), 5) chrome is in Good condition with very little pitting or oxidation, 6) radiator professionally re-cored and lower hose replaced in 1999, 7) original fender skirts and hub caps, 8) comes with breathable soft car cover for interior storage, 9) swing-away steering wheel, 10) sequential turn signal lights in rear, 11) Specialty license plate (66 T brd) could possibly be transferred to a NY buyer...not sure. I’ve included some pictures (including flaws mentioned) in this posting. I would gladly email more pictures to serious buyers. Again, this car is not in perfect condition and a true collector may want to have some things worked on. Non-refundable Down payment of $500 due at end of auction upon successful win. Buyer responsible for picking up. Car is also being advertised locally, and I reserve the right to cancel this offering at any time during its listing.
