INTRODUCTION: A real winner! 1 owner car that spent most of its life in southern California. Built in Long Beach, it's a factory born 312 Thunderbird Special. It has received a meticulous body off frame restoration that will comfort your mind, plus it has a fully refurbished genuine leather interior that will comfort your body. No doubt you will be extremely impressed by its details!

EXTERIOR: Clean and classy! The swooping chrome side trim gives the illusion of motion while the car is sitting still. That theme is carried throughout the ornate flowing hood ornament and bullet pointed side view mirror as well. The rechromed grill, bumpers, and all remaining trim have a glorious shine that sparkles like jewelry. The tail light lenses appear to be brand new and the headlights have the Ford oval in the center. The Thunderbird logo on the fenders lets you know there is something special under the hood. The metallic silver roof is a nice contrast to the Stark black that is laid out with great attention to detail and has a very reflective finish. Looking down the side of the body, it is absolutely straight as an arrow with smooth contours and crisp lines. All the panels are well aligned with gaps that are way above average. The doors close easily with minimal effort and a solid thud. It's rolling on a beautiful set of brand new BFGoodrich wide white wall radials with the original style hubcaps that have been refurbished.

INTERIOR: Real leather! Just from opening the door you can tell this is a quality build. The attention to detail is wonderful, including the slick black paint in the jambs and the refurbished sill plates with embossed logos. Sitting inside is a real pleasure with its fully reupholstered genuine leather seats. It literally smells like a store that sells new cowboy boots in here. The seats were also refurbished with new innards and feel more comfortable than ever before. The door panels have also been totally refinished in real leather and have a very attractive quilted stitching that extends all the way through the kick panels. The headliner is nice and tight and fresh looking. The dome light is working and the rear view mirror is new. Even the brake pedal looks refurbished with the original Shift Sure script. The dash has also been completely redone including a new pad, plus shiny paint and sparkly chrome. The carpeting was also replaced and matches the trunk with its nicely bound edges. What a high quality and complete interior!

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Very original looking! The rebuilt 312 was factory rated at 245 horsepower. This T-bird special is fully outfitted with his original style power brake booster, power steering pump, air cleaner, valve covers, blower motor and more. The wiring in the bay has been neatly redone plus all the belts and hoses we replaced. The battery is properly secured and the horns are hooked up. The radiator appears to have been rebuilt as well. The underside of the hood, fenderwells and firewall are all neatly painted black. Overall, this is a clean and tidy engine compartment that was done right.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid has carpeted inserts with bound edges and slick black paint just like the body. The weatherstrip in the jamb was replaced. The trunk itself is fully carpeted and finished with nicely bound edges. It's also equipped with a full size spare tire and jack assembly. This car is fantastic!

UNDERSIDE: The body was off the frame for restoration. The steering and suspension were completely rebuilt. The front and back are both upgraded. A full stainless steel dual exhaust system is exiting through the rear bumper. The fuel system was replaced including the tank. The brakes have been rebuilt, lines replaced, and the e-brake cables are new. Looking up at the motor it is still spotless plus the Cruz-O-Matic automatic transmission looks fresh too. The frame and chassis was all painted semi-gloss black and it is smooth without even a pit. The floors are rock solid with an original undercoating that's been freshened up with some paint

SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and hired a team of technicians to work it. This is so we can sell you the best cars within reason.

CONCLUSION: If you're in the market for a stunning Ford Victoria that has received a highly detailed frame off restoration, you can stop looking because this is the one! From its genuine leather interior all the way down to its totally fresh undercarriage this classic screams quality everywhere you look!
