About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Body-on restored. Uneven hood gaps. A handful of painted over chips near the headlights. Otherwise very good high quality paint. Very good chrome. Wheel covers are a little dull. Uneven trunk gaps. Excellent interior. Very clean and restored underneath. Not a show winner, but more than pretty enough to be proud of and showable at least on the local level.

Market commentary

A aging market finds less interest in the 2-seat Thunderbirds that once were as sought after as Tri-5 Chevys and the prices are falling accordingly. This result is emblematic of the consequences, to the point where the seller should be very happy to part company with this one-top T-Bird for this much.
