Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Nashville Tennessee is proud to digitally present this sexy little 1962 Ford Thunderbird. This sweet bullet nose bird is one fun car to drive and even getting into the car is fun! Open the door and just get in, now you will notice the steering wheel is not in front of you, that's because it slides to allow for ease of access to enter and or exit the car. Powering this beast is a freshly built 390CID V8 and when this lil-monster is fired up it sounds great as the seller has updated the exhaust system as well, backing this power plant is a smooth shifting 3spd automatic transmission. With only 2,000 miles on the drivetrain since rebuild you can be assured you are going to have many years of use out of this machine. With glass packs at the rear this beast will sing to you. Take the family on a cruise as this low miles machine. The exterior is a soft blue and that is a great color as it shines up nice and looks great on a sunny day. As you climb into the cabin of this Bird you can rest comfortably on the sport bucket seats in the front or a cozy bench in the back, I mean these cars are like rolling couches so when you go on a ride make sure to have your popcorn ready!

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
