For Sale: 1962 Ford Thunderbird in Hillsborough , North Carolina for sale in Hillsborough, NC
Vehicle Description 1962 Ford Thunderbird Landau with 75,398 original miles.
Car is in amazing shape and has had lots of loving care over the years.
The exterior is a 7/10 and the interior is a 9/10 and original.
The car has had a repaint at some point and it's showing it's age here and there but looks incredibly well for a 61 year old car.
Chrome and glass are in great shape and it starts up with no issues and runs very smooth.
I am the 5th owner and have had for a little over 3 years and have driven it less than 500 miles.
I have moved and the new house has 2 garage bays and I have 5 vehicles so it's time for someone else to enjoy this car.
The only two mechanical items I am aware of are the emergency brake needs to be tightened and in order to start, I have to put the car in neutral or if in park push the gear shift upwards and it will start effortlessly.
I am attaching the writeup for the car which was on eBay when I purchased the car as it explains the car in more detail.
I edited it to account for my ownership.
If you are looking for a bullet bird, you'll be hard pressed to find a better one at this good of a price.
