This is a beautifully kept original southern California example with 'California Black License Plates' and with the floor boards, trunk and all the typical rust-prone areas solid and rust-free and the car has no signs of any accidents - obviously a garaged and cherished car since new. The car has it's beautiful original factory 'Lemontree Yellow' (Code G) color paint and its original 'Black Vinyl' (Trim code 26) interior with bucket seats and a center console. The car's original 'Z' Code 390/315HP 4 BBL V8 engine is extremely strong and powerful and sounds absolutely magnificent and the transmission shifts smoothly through all the gears.

This car drives absolutely magnificently - must be driven to be believed - does not miss a beat and purrs like a kitten - drives straight as an arrow with no strange road wobbles, shakes or rattles - a truly remarkable daily driver that will give any modern day car a run for it's money! The car has four virtually new white-wall tires and boasts its original spare wheel and jack in the trunk, an extremely rare and unusual occurrence as you will no doubt agree, and simply further proof of its rare originality!

The Ford Thunderbird was introduced in 1955 as a two seater sports convertible to rival Chevrolet's Corvette although it was never marketed as a sports car! In 1958 it gained a second row of seats. The fourth generation (1964-66) was restyled from the third generation of 1961-63 with a more squared off design from the earlier more rounded generation and continued to be offered in Hardtop, Landau and Convertible models. The wheelbase and length were increased in size and in 1965 front disc brakes became standard.
 
This is a rare opportunity to own a beautiful daily driving original 'Lemontree Yellow' 1966 Ford Thunderbird in very fine and mostly all original condition throughout. This is one very striking turn-key ready example of the 4th generation T-Bird for any classic American car collector!
