Ford Thunderbird - Only 33,000 Miles, Exceptionally Clean Interior, and Rust Free - A Rare Find in Connecticut

Description: Prepare to be transported back in time with this incredible 1973 Ford Thunderbird, now available for sale in beautiful Connecticut. With only 33,000 original miles on the odometer, this very nice Thunderbird represents a rare opportunity to own a classic American luxury car in original condition. This is a true two-owner car with the first owner having driven it off the lot and driving sparingly while storing it in a garage for nearly its entire life.

Vehicle Overview: This 1973 Thunderbird boasts the iconic, unmistakable styling of its era. The exterior is beautifully preserved, featuring a classic Ford color that gleams with a timeless appeal. The body lines are smooth and elegant, showcasing the design philosophy of the '70s. The front two fenders were repainted sometime in the 80s following a minor fender bender. The doors, quarters, and trunk to the back bumper still have the original factory paint color of medium green mist. The repaint faded and will need to be repainted. There is no rust on this car and the undercarriage is incredibly clean. A new muffler was recently installed.

Interior: Step inside, and you'll be amazed by the exceptional condition of the interior. The cabin is a true time capsule, with the original upholstery and trim still looking as fresh as the day it left the factory. Plush seats, a spacious backseat, and an expansive dashboard filled with era-specific details create a luxurious and comfortable driving experience. The back seat is in pristine condition with the seatbelts still wearing the plastic that came from the factory.

Performance: Under the hood, this Thunderbird is powered by a capable 460 V8 engine, delivering smooth and refined performance. A new, rebuilt carburetor was installed and the original carb comes with the car. The engine has been meticulously maintained to ensure reliability and efficiency. The ride quality is second to none, offering a smooth and comfortable journey wherever you go.

Features and Extras: This Thunderbird comes equipped with air conditioning (not working—needs evaporator), power windows, original Thunderbird wheel covers, and an AM/FM radio with an 8-track player (not currently working). It also includes all-original documentation and owner's manuals, including the CT Title.

Maintenance and History: This 1973 Ford Thunderbird is a true survivor, having been carefully preserved throughout its life. With only 33,000 original miles, it has been driven sparingly and lovingly maintained. All service records are available, attesting to its exceptional care over the years. This Thunderbird's history is as clean as its interior.
