1966 Ford Thunderbird
Once in a while a collectible classic car comes on the market in near pristine condition such as this 1966 Ford Thunderbirdbelonging to the daughter of the late Owner. I'm acting as the sales agent.
The car, which was in climate-controlled storage for many years, is described to the best of my ability, however not responsible for omissions. See photos and Video.

The original interior has no fading or cracking and seating remains supple and very comfortable. Doors open and close like new (no sagging). The chrome shines brightly and all lenses are clear.
This car was purchased by the owner's late father; a classic car collector owning the car for many years.
Apparently, the car was never smoked in and has always been garage kept from new, which the overall condition appears to support. Seldom driven and never driven in inclement weather.
Details on the car:
Original dash pad with no signs of cracking or damage
Automatic Transmission
Factory Dual Exhaust
Power Driver's Seat
Drivers Rear View Mirror
Center Console with arm rest
Overhead Center console
Power Brakes -Check the brake pedal which has virtually no wear!
Power Steering
Power Windows
Power Vent Windows
Fender Skirts
Chromed wire wheels with spinners (original wheels and hubcaps come with the car)
Good tires
Aftermarket Custom Autosound radio with SiriusXM capability and Touch Display
Carpeted Trunk
Original Ford Owner's manual and Custom Autosound radio manual
In my opinion, I rate the car 9 out of 10 as it's not a concourse quality show car but as close as it gets with gleaming Maroon paint, shining chrome and as new Burgundy interior.
Bearing in mind its 58 years old and it still runs - drives straight down the road without any rattles or noises.
I'm informed the car won several awards at car shows, but the Owner cannot find any of the trophies or paperwork at her late father's house.
