Description
The fourth generation Ford Thunderbird was produced from 1964 to 1966. This generation of the Thunderbird was restyled in favor of a more squared-off, "formal" look. The only remnant of the Thunderbird's former sporty image was usually the standard 390-cubic-inch 300 hp, but this rare Bird comes equipped with the optional larger 428-cubic-inch (7.0 L), rated at 345 hp, along with the smooth Cruise-O-Matic MX 3 speed automatic, making it a lot more desirable. The popular "Tilt-Away" steering column continued in this model. The Bird is finished in Mariner Turquoise with matching interior. The Thunderbird is no stranger to stardom, as they were featured in many movies- A gold 1966 Town Landau was driven by Dean Martin as Matt Helm in the 1966 film Murder's Row, a green 1966 Thunderbird was prominently featured in the 1991 road film Thelma & Louise, starring Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis, a red 1966 Thunderbird was featured in the 1983 film The Outsiders directed by Francis Ford Coppola, and the list goes on. These Fords are rapidly increasing in value and very popular in the hot rod culture. Don't miss this opportunity for a rare 428 Big Block that runs fantastic!
