What a completely insane thing! This Ford Thunderbird (VIN: 2Y83Z130035) is a single purple item and stands for current only $ 32.900 on the website classicautomall.com for sale. OK, it doesn't have 800 hp and the ultimate Restomod utensils you will look for it in vain, but it is in very good condition and more exclusive than some of the older ones Ford Mustang or Dodge Charger. And the Thunderbird has an extremely long production history, just like the typical muscle cars. It is one of the longest built Ford vehicles. It was introduced in 1955 and built well into the 1990s. Of course, he has many over the years New editions receive. Just like this copy, however, looked quite safe from the factory none out! This Thunderbird was called 1962 model year born and transformed into something that the guys behind the renovation called "Phat Mobile" describe. The Thunderbird is kind of a chopped lowrider with a special bodykit with changed Fenders, 15-inch cragar spoke rims and Whitewall tires, disc brakes from the Ford Granada and the typical long tail fins.

And somehow, in spite of that, shrill paintwork the result is pretty good as we think. The front apron was completely eliminated and at this point sits now individually manufactured grille. The front is between the headlights closed and only the extremely long one molding up to the tail fins mentioned still corresponds to the series. As mentioned earlier that was roof clear (minus 7 1/2 inches) shortenedwhat is relevant to eye-catching optics contributes. And the rear view is no less spectacular. Again, the classic Chromed rear apron evaporated and apart from the distinctive round turbine taillights, the rear only has one Recess for the license plate equipped. Somehow the vehicle would fit into the cartoon “The Jetsons”, wouldn't it? Especially since the animation series was produced by the Hanna-Barbera-Studios from 1962 and therefore fits exactly. The overall package is quite consistent, even if the Thunderbird instead of the paint in Lavender purple certainly one black paint would stand better.

In the end, that's natural a matter of taste and an action that can even be "made up" at any time. It is so noticeable in the cabin Fastback Rear window and rear lid übrigens not to. If you open the purple doors, something noticeable becomes apparent Grey with bucket seats, power windows, there is a Three-spoke sports steering wheel with Wooden wreath (Rally fillet style), a new Center console with Vintage air conditioning and a typical one dashboard. And something has also happened under the hood. The factory-built 390-ci (6,4-liter) V8 flew out and was given a massive 460-ci (7,5-liter) eight-cylinder from a Lincoln Continental replaced, which even largely disguised has been. The engine hangs on one 3-speed automatic but unfortunately no precise key performance data are known. If we get more information about the changes, there will of course be an update for this report.
