1961 Ford Thunderbird Description

For sale is a very nice 1961 Ford Thunderbird Retractable Convertible. This car is rust free, garage kept since the early 70's that I know of, probably it's entire life. 44,000 original miles, original engine and drive line. This car has never been restored, only maintained. I would call this more of a survivor car. The previous owner did what was needed over the years to keep the car in nice condition as have I. Original chrome and stainless, original glass, etc. all in very nice shape. New interior and top was done in the early 80's, has had one repaint in the late 70's. I would rate this a solid #3 car using Hagerty Insurance rating system. They value the car at 23,000. Runs and drives nice, top works. I just had the radiator rebuilt as it sprang a leak and the core was weak. This is a very nice example of a first year Bullet Bird. It is not a 50K #1 car but you could make it one and have less that 50 in it.I am starting the bidding at the "how much would you take" amount, which is close to #4 money. I need the garage space and don't drive the car enough to warrant keeping it. There is no reserve, first bidder at the listed price is going to own it. No guessing what the reserve is or wondering if you will be the high bidder. Bid it to win it, you won't be disappointed. Any questions, just ask and thanks for checking it out!
