Anextremelyfine example of a super rare and verydesirableT Top Thunderbird. This car draws an admiring crowd where ever I go. Built on the first day of T Top production at the LA plant and isone of approximately 400 T Top Thunderbirds built .Low original mileage, he car was placed in storage in 1996. The car was very well maintained.

The heater defroster also works very well. The carpet and door panels are in very good condition, ll the glass is crack free and the windows go up and down fine.
The car starts and runs perfectly, verything works. The T Top had leaked and stained the headliner so I had the T Top structural frame completely resealed along with new perimeter weatherstripping, ew center bar felt, ew front and rear felts and a new cloth headliner. The tires were dry rotted from sitting so I installed4 brand new ww tires, flushed the gas tank and had the carb rebuilt. Ive been getting 15 MPG+ in town and 18-22 MPG on the highway, he engine runs perfectly, he transmission shifts perfectly, o leaks, nocks or smoke.The car was parked near a pine tree so it does have several spots were the pine sap marred the paint,, t does a few minor scrapes on the front turn signal housing otherwise the finish is in very good condition. Comes with full set of service manuals and original owners manual. Open to specialty/classic car trade of equal or lesser value .
I just installed a brand new Kenwood KDC-X399 stereo and a Sirius Onyx plus satellite radioreceiver in a custom built-to-match console. I will leave these in place for an additional $300.00.
