Complete restoration in 2016 to very high standard. All new rubber, glass, stainless and chrome work restored. 390 Cadillac engine with B & M hydromatic transmission. Engine was installed in the 1960's to compete with the new Corvettes. These conversions were done by Bill Frick & Tappet of Long Island, New York known as the "Fordalack".

A very nice driving T-Bird. Smooth and quiet with 400+ hp and 500 lbs. of torque. Shifts and accelerates with authority.

Nothing cut under the hood. Can be returned to stock engine.
All new interior with reconditioned instruments. 15" steering wheel. Very nice 2-stage paint work. Was stripped to bare metal and primered with the best materials. Took 3 months and $15,000 in paint work. California car-rust free. Soft tops are available.
