I say VERY RARE because they only made 5,049 Thunderbird Convertibles in 1966 !! You can now own a GORGEOUS Classic Car that is gettingvery hard to find, especially in this kind of PAMPERED - RESTORED condition, WOW! Thousands and thousands of dollars and many, many hours were spent on the professional restoration of this ONE OWNER BEAUTY !! The car was recently restored by T-Birds West in Corvallis, Oregon and has been driven only 122 miles since the restoration was completed !! During the restoration the body was stripped to bare metal, most of the interior is brand new, brand new convertible top was installed, motor was completly rebuilt, brakes were redone with disc's up front, new ball joints and brand new Coker wide whitewall steel belted radial tires were put on. The 1966 Thunderbird convertible was the LAST & they tell me the BEST year of the fourth generation Thunderbirds and was also the LAST Thunderbird convertible produced by Ford until 2002 !!
