Description

This 1964 Ford Thunderbird might just be the most affordable way to take home a comfortable cruiser that also turns heads the moment it leaves the garage. In fact, ith a reliable V8, utomatic transmission, nd ice-cold A/C, nd this is a classic coupe that you won't be afraid to take out any day of the week.We know why you love this car. It's big golden T-bird from that perfect few years where the design somehow was able to blend the square second generation and rounded third generation into an artful and iconic design. But the real irresistibility factor comes from the Landau roof design. Not only does the b-pillar ornamentation look like the perfect jewel to top the gold paint, ut it also is a model that's three times more rare than the standard '64 hardtop. These Thunderbirds had brightwork that could be measured in acres, nd so it's great to see that this one is complete from the shark nose to the wide emblems in the taillights. The addition of Cragar wheels only increases the attention drawn to this coupe. Personal luxury really meant something in 1964, s the tasteful bucket seat interior offers plenty of eye candy for both driver and passengers. The tan seats are in good shape and showing wonderful contrast with the darker tan areas of the interior. A center console was standard equipment, nd it includes controls for the air conditioning (now running modern R-134a.) The gauges have that 60s-cool setup that is so intricate that we know no factory would ever dare try in modern times. The ribbon-style speedometer sits on top, nd four fashionable individual round pods finish the gauge package. With style a priority in these T-birds, he swing-away steering wheel was also standard. The big block 390 cubic-inch V8 was the only motor available in '64, nd that's because it had the horsepower and torque to keep everyone happy. This one has been upgraded with some nice Edelbrock brightwork on the air cleaner and valve covers, ut it still doesn't stray from the original formula. This includes the correct blue paint on the Ford block, nd a four-barrel carburetor to keep the V8 breathing deeply. It fires up easily and makes a nice sound out of the dual exhaust it's not like a muscle car, ut instead, confident and mature rumble. A three-speed automatic spins a nine-inch rear end full of 3.00 gears, aking this coupe an exceptional long-distance runner. Add in the power steering, ront disc brakes, nd modern BF Goodrich tires, nd this is an ideal all-day cruiser. Thunderbirds have always represented style, ut this one also presents good value for a feature-filled classic driver. Call today!!!
