Power comes from a 390ci V8 engine coupled to a 3-speed automatic transmission, while output is sent to the rear wheels.
The 2 door Tudor Hardtop coupe left the factory in Fieldstone Tan Metallic and has been the recipient of a red respray.
The Thunderbird led the way in the 60s with amenities and was fitted with power windows, seats, locks, and windows.
The car also features power steering, removable fender skirts, and a new brake master cylinder.
This Thunderbird is reportedly a 2-owner vehicle, as the current owner claims to have purchased the car from the original owner in 1989.
It is currently located in Rialto, California.
The 1962 Ford shows well in the third-party photos.
The red paint suits the cars lines, and the two-tone scheme represents the time period well.
Despite the re-paint, the third-party inspection did reveal multiple spots of cracks and scratches in the paint that one might expect of a car this age.
The inspection also revealed cracked tail lights, inoperable drivers side windows, and a passenger-side deflector that is broken.
New seals are needed around the rear window and the trunk.
The interior is dressed in Light Pearl Beige, matching the white upper exterior paint, and is in fair condition with the exception of some tears in the upholstery.
The factory radio is in place but also inoperable, as is the drivers side power seat.
The inspection also reported staining on the carpets.
In terms of functionality, the engine and transmission, and brakes operate as they should and the odometer reads 28,589 but true mileage is unknown.
Some blue smoke is reported at idle and as is fluid leakage from the engine, transmission, and differential.
The steering needs an alignment, and the shocks and their bushings need to be checked for replacement.
Overall the car is a driver quality vehicle that presents well all around, considering its age.
Included in the sale is one set of keys.
This car is being marketed by a CLASSIC.
COM Pro on behalf of its current owner and is located in Rialto, CA.
