Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Fort Lauderdale is happy to present this one family owned 1972 Ford Thunderbird!
The substantial coupe has been loved by the same family since new, and shows only 39,436 miles. The body, trim and paint will not disappoint. The paint appears to be the original. Even the vinyl top look very good. If you want one that is still very original, this is one groovy time machine!
The big 460 4-barrel fires right up, and has been left alone with the exception of a modern aluminum radiator. It was the largest engine option available in '72. The exhaust features a cool electric dump added by the owner, to surprise those around you on demand. It's no race car, but has respectable acceleration and well, it's just cool.
The Thunderbirds became more of a luxury car after the early 60's, and thins one has the popular power options of the day making it a very comfortable car. The interior is in very nice shape and still sports the deep pile carpet.
This is a great entry-level collectible and something you can be proud of. The owners indicate recent service including oil change, new spark plugs, transmission fluid and coolant. They are incuding other history / documents as well.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
