Location: bordon / fareham
1961 ford thunderbird lowrider
It has the 390fe big block v8 and automatic gearbox.
2 door pillarless car with electric windows, and an electric drivers seat, Aircon has been removed as wasn't working.
Swing away steering wheel, with power steering.
Its running hydraulics, 4 showtime pumps and 6 batteries with 10 switches, can be wired for either 24v or 36v.
The bit I absolutely fell in love with, was the interior! it's a full crushed velvet interior and white sparkly shag pile carpet, it really has got to be seen to be appreciated, the workmanship is great and though not to everyone's taste, it draws sooo much attention.
I've fitted 4 focal speakers (a pair on each door) and a 10" sub in the boot, there's an amp under each seat.
14" wire wheels, these are showing some rust spots now (they always do eventually) but still look great on the car.
Has a 4 link on the rear axle and I've just replaced the polybushes and strengthened the 4 link bars.
The bodywork is getting a bit tatty, it has its marks and some paint blistering here and there, it is a 1961 car after all. I've even managed to source a replacement rear window panel that isn't rusty! A rare find, just need to paint it the correct white
The floors also seem solid.
The chrome work has got pitting, but alot of the shiny bits are stainless so polish up really nice. I do have a second pair of bumpers with much better chrome.
It is a running and driving car with a few little oil leaks. Just needs a bit of love and for someone to put there own stamp on it.
If you want to know anything more, just ask, I've got loads of pictures and videos
