Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is honored to offer this sleek 1980 Ford Thunderbird. The current owner is believed to be the 3rd since it was new in 1980. The car was brought down from Pennsylvania to Florida and has been enjoyed here since! The current owner claims that when walking around this car you would be looking at factory paint from 1980, as this car is believed to be a survivor. The yellow paint looks sharp offset with a tan vinyl top, chrome trim, chrome grille, hideaway headlights, and 14" hubcaps wrapped in radial white wall tires. The interior flows well with the paint/vinyl top and features a tan vinyl and cloth seats, air conditioning, AM/FM radio, power brakes, power steering, tilt wheel, seat belts, etc. Powering this sharp Thunderbird is believed to be the 4.2L 255CID V8 Windsor engine that is mated to a 4-speed AOD overdrive automatic transmission with 19,220 on the odometer. Although the seller believes this is the miles since new, there isn't a history report on a 1980, the previous title does line up with this statement and shows 18002. If you are looking for an unmolested T-bird, this could be the one for you!

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
