Notes
First issued during 1962, this Ford Thunderbird car is finished in white with a bright deep yellow interior. Complete lime green and red detachable canopy, driver.
Occasional little mark on this most unforgiving of colours. Two stray dots of factory silver on a rear wing. Little minor marking to the small section of the windscreen in contact with the driver’s arm. ‘TAXI’ and ‘BERMUDA’ labels are complete, although note the little crease to one of the door labels.
Spring suspension on bright shaped spun hubs. Smooth running original tyres.
The box is complete, clean and bright, feeling crisp. Light wear and corner crumpling.
Not an easy find.
