Equipment
Wire wheel covers, whitewalls, Thunderbird Special 312/225hp engine, automatic, power steering, heater, dash clock, pushbutton radio, three-row seating.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
The paint is very good, with just some slight peeling on the rear hatch. The brightwork is also very good. The interior trim, upholstery, two-tone cattle themed bench seats are also in great condition, but there is staining on much of the headliner. The wheels and tires are in great condition. Spotless restored engine bay. A relatively rare car with a rare engine, restored to good standards but never fully taken apart.
Market commentary
This car sold for just $24,840 at Branson Spring in 2009, but in Arizona its combination of attractive colors, cattle-motif interior and rare drivetrain proved a charming one and it brought a strong but not crazy price.
