Rare Classic - 1966 Thunderbird Convertible w/ 428 cid Q Code Engine !

NO  RESERVE !

The 1966 Ford Thunderbird was the last year that the fourth generation Thunderbirds were produced. In 1966, Ford also introduced the optional 428 cid engine with 345 hp and the ability to do zero to 60 in 9 seconds!

This 1966 Thunderbird is very rare and a good investment grade collector car. It is original, solid and virtually rust free and is only one of 700 convertibles produced with the Q code engine. Only 5,049 total convertible models were produced in 1966. 

I am the second owner & this car had one repaint. The engine and transmission are original and the floor pans and upholstery are original as well. The original AM radio is still in the car. The dash and instruments are in excellent condition and the instrument panel is bright. Options are power windows, power steering, power brakes and power top. The speedometer says 21,726 (It is actually 121,724 miles). 

The original paint color was: "Code Z - 1915 - Sauturne Gold"
The paint color now is: "Code M - 1619 - Wimbledon White"

We purchased this car in 1972 from a Long Island Ford Dealer and drove it as a daily driver until 1980, when we re-painted it, installed a new top and mounted new WW tires. The car was taken off the road in 2002 and has been garaged since then & the engine has not been started in 3-4 years. The car has a few issues: The trunk lid is stuck in open position (as seen in last photo), the rear transmission seal has a leak, the window switch contacts have to be cleaned and the battery is dead. 

The paint and chrome are shiny and the black top and white wall tires are "like new".

The car is being sold AS IS, so check it out to make sure that you are getting what you are looking for !

UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
Scroll down to watch Auto Express' top five commercial in order and to check out a press release, then let us know some of your favorite car commercials in Comments.
