1970 Ford Thunderbird Landau Description
1970 Ford Thunderbird429 ThunderJet Landau Coupe129,000 approximate original miles
This vehicle was manufactured in Los Angeles and then purchased new in El Paso. It then spent the rest of its life in Southern and Central California. It has always been garaged so its original Pastel Yellow body paint is still glossy and its Brown Landau vinyl roof is barely faded. It has always been driven carefully and responsibly so its original Brougham interior trim in Ginger quilted cloth and vinyl is still intact. The white sidewall tires still have lots of tread and the original brushed chrome hub caps are all in nice condition.
The engine is the legendary 360 hp 429 ThunderJet V8 with 4-barrel carburetor and dual exhaust. This is mated to the smooth SelectShift Cruise-O-Matic transmission. All this power is managed through integral design Fluidic Control power steering and self-adjusting power front disc brakes. The driver can cruise in comfort thanks to a tilt steering wheel, power front bench seat and SelectAire conditioner.
The engine and transmission were rebuilt approximately 30 years ago, and the original radio was replaced with an aftermarket stereo system. Other than that, this vehicle still has almost all its original factory parts. Approximately 20 years ago, this vehicle was parked in a garage and rarely ever driven. For at least the past 15 years it has been registered non-operational with DMV. The Title is still in the original owner's name.
This classic Thunderbird now needs a new owner who can appreciate its beauty and power. There is not much work needed to make this the elegant and exciting coupe it once was. Please study the photographs closely to decide if this is the one you have been searching for. Additional pictures and information will be provided upon request. Personal inspections can be arranged but keep in mind this vehicle is not operational.
