1965 Ford Thunderbird

 For sale is a 1965 Ford Thunderbird Landau. This vehicle was built at the Wixom. MI assembly plant in April of 1965. It was sold to Emrhae Ford in Virginia Beach. Va. I have the original invoice from the Wixom plant to the Emrhae Ford dealership. It has been a Virginia Beach car for all of its 52 yrs. I found the original build sheet under the back seat. Through an engraved Thunderbird nameplate found in the glove box. I was able to locate and talk with the lady who purchased it new from Emrhae Ford. The car is pretty much original. The only thing that needed to be replaced in the interior was the carpet. I replaced it with the original 60/40 blend nylon loop carpet. This is the first year that Thunderbirds were equipped with disc brakes. I replaced the carburetor after doing much research with a new Edlebrock 4bbl. I haven't tried the a/c. The compressor pulley spins but the a/c hasn't been charged. Like any vintage car. a few minor parts could probably stand to be replaced. but it drives well. I recently drove it to Colonial Williamsburg about 50-60 miles each way and it performed well. I received several nice comments that day. It is a beautiful Ivy green color. It has new white wall tires and a well made car cover that was designed to fit this car.
