Details

This 1962 Ford Thunderbird Sports Roadster custom convertible is finished in triple-black Raven paint with a matching black interior and convertible top. It received a professional rotisserie restoration by M&K Restorations in 2018, with only 400 miles driven since the restoration was completed. It is powered by a Ford 6.4-liter 390ci V8 engine mated to the Ford Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission. The engine was rebuilt by Ramjet Performance Engines using an original block and features rebuilt Ford Racing billet aluminum pistons, aluminum cam, aluminum heads, aluminum water pump and many other performance upgrades. The engine now puts out over 430hp versus the original 300hp. This example was taken down to bare metal and professionally painted in the correct original factory color of Raven Black. All major mechanical systems were professionally restored/rebuilt including the engine, transmission and convertible top system. It has an all-new interior and convertible top. All exterior chrome trim, bumpers, grille, bezels and engine trim was professionally rechromed. It also retains its original factory fiberglass tonneau cover, original Kelsey-Hayes chrome wire wheels and factory Sports Roadster special badges. The entire drivetrain was rebuilt, including new suspension, brakes and exhaust. It has new Coker wide whitewall tires, a tilt-away steering wheel, AM/FM and Bluetooth radio. This completely rust-free vehicle spent its entire life in Southern California and Phoenix, AZ, with only three owners since new. There are over $135,000 in detailed receipts spent on the restoration.
