This 1963 Ford Thunderbird is one of approximately 5,913 convertibles made for the model year. Under previous ownership it was modified with a repaint in red, a lowered suspension, and a 351ci Cleveland V8. The black interior was also refreshed, and the car has a power-retractable white soft top, dual exhaust outlets, a left-side mirror, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, power windows, a swing-away steering wheel, a vintage-look radio, a MagicAire heater/defroster, and power steering.
Originally black, the car was repainted red under previous ownership. It features a power-retractable white soft top, chrome-finished bumpers, a left-side mirror, fender skirts, 1963-specific door accents, and a dual exhaust system with outlets below the rear bumper.
The 14″ steel wheels wear spinner-style covers, and the suspension has been lowered approximately 2″. The car came equipped from the factory with power steering, and braking is provided by power-assisted drums at each corner.
The car has a power-adjustable driver’s seat, power windows, a vintage-look radio, a MagicAire heater/defroster, and a center console. The interior was refreshed in 2013.
The three-spoke steering wheel is mounted to a swing-away column and frames a 120-mph speedometer, an analog clock, and a single combination gauge for fuel level and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 20k miles.
A 351ci Cleveland V8 was installed under previous ownership. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission.
