Description
This 1962 Ford Thunderbird is a red-on-black convertible that is equipped with a body-color Sports Roadster-style fiberglass tonneau cover, 14″ wire-spoke wheels, Thunderbird fender emblems, and a passenger-side grab bar. Power is provided by a 390ci V8 paired with a Cruise-O-Matic three-speed automatic transmission. Additional equipment includes a white soft top, dual exhaust outlets, power steering, and dual side mirrors in addition to a power-adjustable driver’s seat, power windows, a swing-away steering column, and a MagicAire heater/defroster. Work performed since 2023 has involved rebuilding the four-barrel carburetor and replacing the door locks, fuel tank, thermostat, battery, generator, voltage regulator, and components for the braking and ignition systems. This Thunderbird is now offered by the seller on behalf of the owner with a clean California title in the owner’s name. The car left the factory finished in Rangoon Red (J) and is believed to have been refinished at some point under prior ownership. A body-color Sports Roadster-style tonneau cover is fitted, and the seller reports that the power-retractable white soft top requires manual assistance to raise. Thunderbird emblems adorn the front fenders, and other details include chrome-finished bumpers, quad headlights, reverse lights, a windshield washer, dual side mirrors, and a dual exhaust system with outlets below the rear bumper.
