Vehicle Detail

THIS RARE THUNDERBIRD IS A GREAT CAR TO RESTORE.IT HAS A 351 V8 ENGINE, FMX AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND 9 INCH REAR END.THE ENGINE RUNS VERY SMOOTH AND QUIET.THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GOOD.THIS CAR HAS BEEN IN STORAGE SINCE 2009. SHORTLY BEFORE PUT IN STORAGE IT HAD NEW FRONT BRAKE PADS,ROTORS CALIPERS AND HOSES INSTALLED,ALSO NEW DUAL EXHAUST AND 4 NEW TIRES.THE BRAKE PEDAL IS VERY LOW, I THINK IT MAY NEED A MASTER CYLINDER. SOMEONE REMOVED THE A/C BELT AND AIR PUMP BELT,THE AIR PUMP STILL TURNS FREE AS DOES THE A/C COMPRESSOR.THE POWER ANTENNA MAST IS BROKEN AND THE OIL GAUGE DOES'NT WORK. THE INTERIOR IS IN GOOD CONDITION AND DOESNT APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN SMOKED IN. THE CAR HAS BEEN REPAINTED BUT DOES NOT APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN DONE BY A PROFESSIONAL,THERE IS AND OF ORANGE PEEL IN THE PAINT.THE ONLY PLACE I CAN SEE THAT THERE WAS ANY RUST REPAIR IS IN THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE FRONT FENDERS.THE FRAME AND FLOOR BOARDS ARE VERY SOLID AS ARE THE BUMPER REINFORCEMENTS.THE BUMPERS DO NEED TO BE RECHROMED. THE VINYL TOPS ARE EXCELLENT,APPARENTLY THEY HAVE BEEN REPLACED RECENTLY.THE CHROME TRIM AROUND THE DRIVERS SIDE OPERA WINDOW IS MISSING. I DO NOT HAVE THE CENTER CAPS FOR THE WHEELS.KEEP IN MIND THIS IS A 37 YEAR OLD CAR THAT HAS BEEN SITTING FOR 6 YEARS.I HAVE TRIED TO DESCRIBE THIS A WELL AS I CAN. IT WILL NEED SOME MAINTAINCE AND REPAIRS TO BE ROAD WORTHY AND IT SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY GONE OVER. IT MUST BE HAULED FROM HERE,NOT DRIVEN DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS.I WILL BE HAPPY TO ARRANGE SHIPPING WITHIN THE CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES TO SAVE YOU FROM PAYING BROKERAGE FEES TO ONLINE SHIPPING COMPANIES.FEEL FREE TO CALL ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS @ 304-780-8201THERE IS NO RESERVE BUT IT IS ALSO FOR SALE LOCALLY SO I MAY REMOVE IT FROM EBAY AT ANY TIME IF I SELL IT BEFORE THE AUCTION ENDS. I HAD TO RELIST THIS DUE TO A BIDDER WHO DID NOT PAY OR RETURN ANY EMAILS AND ANOTHER BIDDER THAT DID NOT READ THE AD BEFORE BIDDING.IF YOU HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO THAN SCREW WITH SELLERS HERE ON EBAY OR ARE TO STUPID TO READ THE AD BEFORE BIDDING MAYBE YOU SHOULD TRY PRAYING TO GOD FOR A REAL LIFE BECAUSE APPARENTLY YOU NEED A BETTER LIFE THAN THE ONE YOU HAVE!I AM SORRY FOR HAVING TO BE SO BLUNT BUT THERE ARE ALOT OF IDIOTS OUT THERE.
