Ford Thunderbird 1963 Description

You are looking at a beautiful 1963 Thunderbird hardtop, urquoise through and through! This car has been garage kept in the family since 1990. The pictures should say it all, ut I will do my best to provide full disclosure of the vehicle.
Mechanical:This car runs beautifully! Engine has less than 1000 miles on it. Short block has been rebuilt and restored. Under the hood has seen a lot of work. The carburetor is newly rebuilt. Intake manifold has been upgraded to high performace Edelbrock. The air horn and valve covers have been powder coated their gold color. The engine bay has been repainted. Original Cruise-O-Matic 3-speed transmission. Exhaust system is in great shape. Tires have 80% tread.New parts :-starter-battery-spark plugs-hood insulation thrown in as a bonusExterior:The paint is original! (with exception of under the hood and skirts) The negative to this is that the car has accumulated quite a few scratches and dings over the past 52 years. I tried to capture most of these in the pictures. This car has minimal rust considering it's age. There are spots beneath the rear window (typical for this model). There is also some rusting on the trunk bed, assenger side (see pictures). Much of the underside of the car has been treated with an anti-rust rubberized coat.Note the bumper is slightly out of align. The car also sags a bit to the right.
Interior:This bird has an eye-catching two-tone turquoise interior! The front seats have been reupholstered and look great. Back seats are still original; slight discoloring there. This car has its original sliding steering wheel, very cool feature. The dash has some warping isn it which is hard to see in the pictures. Various pieces of the interior have discolored at different rates, o some pieces don't quite match. Driver armrest is worn. Windows are automatic. The front windows work great, ut the rear quarter windows are non functioning. Fuel gauge and clock do not currently work.
Trunk: Needs some work. See pictures where anti rattle padding was attached to the trunk, hich will need removed. There is still the original trunk liner, hich is quite worn out.
Additional parts: I have accumulated quite a few extra parts for the vehicle that we can negotiate on if you're interested upon sale.
