Year: 1963 Make: Ford Model: Thunderbird Mileage: 7,073  VIN: 3Y83Z109967 Drivetrain: RWD Engine: 390 V8 Transmission: Automatic Fuel: Gasoline Color: Red Title: Clean - Odometer listed as exempt Registration: Expired This 1963 Ford Thunderbird is an outstanding example of early 1960s American design, boasting just 7,073 miles on the odometer and retaining a remarkable degree of originality throughout, aside from some tasteful modern upgrades, such as the speakers. Finished in a vibrant red with a matching interior, this car captures the spirit of the Jet Age in both form and function, from its sculpted body lines to its aviation-inspired cockpit. Powered by Ford’s 390 cubic inch V8 paired with an automatic transmission, the car runs and drives smoothly, firing up without hesitation and delivering the confident, torquey performance these Thunderbirds are known for. The signature swing-away steering column—a hallmark of the 1961–63 generation—adds a touch of futuristic flair and genuine functionality, pivoting aside when in park to ease entry and exit. This example arrived with us in good working condition and overall solid condition. The body presents nicely, with only light wear consistent with age and use. The interior is in vert good shape, retaining its original character, though there is a small area of damage on the left side of the dash near the steering wheel. Importantly, this Thunderbird appears to be largely unmodified and untouched, offering an excellent platform for preservation or a light restoration. This ’63 T-Bird is a rare find—whether you’re a collector seeking originality or an enthusiast looking for a classic to enjoy as-is. *This vehicle description is based on general observation and does not constitute a comprehensive inspection or guarantee of condition.
