THIS T-BIRD HAS BEEN SOLD! RETRACTION! The speedometer and fuel gauges are inoperative. I misspoke on the video! A great value in a T-Bird convertible regardless!
I think that this Thunderbird convertible is stunning!!! When I was in high school in the seventies my drama teacher had a 66 T-Bird that was this exact color!! It was a Town Landau, not the convertible. This is my favorite year for Thunderbird!!! 👍👍🙂
Almost bought a Town Landau at Carlisle one year, but it just needed more than I wanted to do. Always liked the beaklift for 66, tho' younger me preferred the bullet birds to these - think I've reversed that now.; same mechanicals but a generation ahead in interior and I've grown to like the creases and folds.
The color on this Bird is Silver Mink poly, not Brittany Blue. Silver Mink is a bluish silver/grey metallic and Brittany Blue is a light/ medium blue metallic. I have a 66 Bird with 428 I'm doing a full, frame-up resto-mod with IRS, 4 wheel disc, rack and pinion and twin Torqdtorm blowers. Original color was turqouise, but changing it now. I was deciding between Silver Mink and Brittany Nlue and picked the latter. I compared examples of both a2nd went with Brittany Blue on the flip of a coin as both colors look fantastic! -DWH
@@orphancargarage5746I own a 66 Bird hardtop with manual windows. I've had it since 1995. It came with air conditioning fortunately, with the original am only radio.I don't know if the AC was standard or optional for this year's model. Here's a fun fact: The 66 Bird was the first year of the 8 Track player option. 😊

I don't disagree but we need to also understand that a VERY SMALL percentage of new cars in those days had A/C. Today, it's mostly standard equipment and we've come to expect it.
Looks like a paperweight. Silly art deco design. It’s like they found a way to bend space time and then built a car. The era of Star Wars dreadnaught destroyer design, fkkk physics.
