This 1962 Ford Thunderbird Sports Roadster is from the third generation of Thunderbirds. It is powered by a 390/300hp 4-barrel V8 engine matched to its original Cruise-O-Matic 3-speed automatic transmission. This restored example is finished in its original factory Rangoon Red (Code J) paint with a black (Trim Code 56) vinyl interior and factory options that include bucket seats, full carpeting, front console, power steering, power brakes, power windows, power door locks, power front seats, original AM radio, heater and defroster, full instrumentation, a unique swing-away steering wheel and the roadster's trunk-stored power convertible top.

The Sports Roadster had a special fiberglass tonneau cover for the rear seats, which gave the car the appearance of being a two-seater roadster. The original spare wheel with its jack is in the trunk and the car rides on new Coker tires mounted on its correct Kelsey-Hayes chrome wire wheels. Priced at over $5,500 when new, only 1,427 were built in 1962. The sale includes a copy of the dealer invoice.
