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 !

Shelby GT500 and Roush Stage 3 go head to head at the drag strip

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

The Ford Mustang is a brilliantly affordable source of horsepower, with a base 300-plus-horsepower version available for well under $30,000. Jumping up to about $35,000 will get you a solid 420 horsepower from a high-revving V8, while those with some extra disposable income can get a pair of 600-plus-horsepower monsters. Both the Roush Stage 3 with its Phase 3 package and Ford's factory Shelby GT500 even crest the 650-horsepower mark, with 675 and 662 ponies, respectively.
Naturally, someone needed to find out which of these hi-po Mustangs was the quickest. And while this video is quite obviously a dealership commercial, at least there's some solid drag racing between two of the most powerful performance machines available for under $100,000.
With two NHRA drag racers at the wheel, the Stage 3 and GT500 go head to head for three races. Scroll down below to see the results in the full video.
