Ford was in need of another personal luxury car to compete with their European counterparts, so Ford reintroduced a new Thunderbird for 2002. Returning to the original formula for the Thunderbird, the latest version had a two-seat convertible layout like the first generation, removable hardtop and a retro-futuristic styling to match. In 1999 Ford unveiled their new concept car at the Detroit Auto Show. Ford had built 3 variations, and of the three concept Ford Thunderbird Vehicles Ford produced, one of them was converted to what Ford called the Sports Roadster Model, the other Concept car Ford kept or destroyed, and this back and red concept Thunderbird is the one that got away. This Thunderbird concept is very unique and is built on a Lincoln LS Platform with Front Mounted V8 Rear Drive Setup. This car has a 1 inch Longer Wheelbase than the production models. The Hardtop is also lower, although only by minimal 10mm, but the more steeply raked windscreen gives it a more aggressive style. Since this is a True Concept Vehicle, there are no windows and the non-functioning dials and switches are just mock ups. The body is all fiberglass. The chrome plated plastic wheels show very nicely. Overall, the car is a stunning example of a True Concept Vehicle in wonderful Condition. This Thunderbird does have a Lincoln LS 3.9 litre V-8 Engine, automatic transmission console shifter on the floor. This prototype car was unveiled at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in 1999 as well as the Pebble Beach Concours dElegance. This Ford Thunderbird Prototype has Been Housed in a Car Museum Since 2003

In 1970 Ford teamed up with De Tomaso and Ghia and the Pantera was born. Produced from 1971-74, it was modeled after the legendary GT 40, it featured a dramatically sculpted aerodynamic shape, powered by Fords all new Boss 351 Mustang engine connected to a ZF five-speed manual gearbox and could achieve 160 mph.

If you know your history, you know that when the Second World War broke out in 1941, all manufacturing across the United States was focused on building and suppling war equipment. After World War II, Ford was the first American automaker to resume production. Once the War Production Board okayed the opening of the passenger car assembly lines the first 1946 Ford made its way down the streets of Dearborn. Development work had halted during the war, so the cars that emerged looked very much like the short-lived 1942 models. Visual cues were limited to trim differences, while the more significant changes took place under the body with the drivelines. All Fords now used the more powerful 100 horsepower 239 cid Mercury flathead and only Deluxe and Super Deluxe cars were produced across the models line-up, including convertibles and wagons. The previous owner invested a considerable amount of money upgrading this car which included new Maize Yellow paint, a LeBaron Bonney interior and a black Haartz cloth top. It is equipped with a radio, a fresh-air heater, Firestone Deluxe Champion wide whitewall tires, fog lights, electric clock and a chrome exhaust deflector. This is a real beauty that is a great driver and would grab the attention of any vintage car connoisseur.

Since there had never been any molds or plans created, extensive amount of time and research was undertaken before the project began to get every possible detail correct. The biggest roadmap for creating the designs was an oil painting. Help was sought from all areas such as documentation, personnel, letters, photos, and more. Experts on the Town & Country were utilized in creating the designs as they would have been. Built by John Slusar and Lloyd Mayes, the project was completed during the late 1990s.

This car started out as a solid, straight rust free unibody before it was completely striped to bare metal and restored. The engine compartment and front clip were sand blasted while the laser straight hood and decklid were acid stripped. The car was then painted in its original and stunning (j) Monte Carlo red. The chrome was sent out to be redone and all the stainless has been professionally polished to a mirror finish.

The interior was fully refinished in genuine red leather, all meticulously handcrafted using the original leather covers as patterns. The end result was time consuming but was left perfect and show quality down to the last stitch.

The convertible top system was dismantled, painted and professionally reassembled and functions flawlessly. A new white top was installed and the compartment was finished in its original patterns.

The drivetrain includes the original j-code Lincoln 430ci performance v8 with 350 horsepower and a massive 490 lb-ft torque! Rebuilt with .030 over pistons, new water pump, starter, generator and every nut and bolt fully detailed.

Loaded with options like leather, power steering, power brakes, power windows, power drivers seat, factory select a/c, heater, tinted glass and topped off with white wall tires and fender skirts, this former 4-time AACA winner is possibly the finest 1960 Thunderbird on the road today.
