1967 Ford Thunderbird T Bird 2 Door with Landau Roof in White & Ride My Car Story with Lou Costabile 

That may be one of the most beautifully preserved cars I’ve ever seen. What a gorgeous car. American cars at their finest.

I know it was sacrilege in some people's eyes, but I just love the 4-door model of this car with the suicide doors. So cool.

The side windows retracting back instead of down is funky. Very chic.

What a great survivor !!!! Congratulation for this lucky owner...

Probably the nicest and most original one on the planet!

Wow, Wow, and just...WOW!!! This car is so amazing, it looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor!!! The interior is so clean, everything on this car is so clean!!! Beautiful and so elegant!!! Say it with me... WOW!!!

This Thunderbird is so totally gorgeous, and the video is sooo great that I actually had to watch it twice!

This is a Big WOW!! 1967 Thunderbird. I always liked the 1967, 1968 and 1969 Bird's This is the best example of one of a true fine incredible 1967 Thunderbirds that I have ever seen, again Wow!! Thanks, Lou...

these T-Birds used to be advertised on the back cover of the old National Geographic when I was a kid, my Dad had a subscription, the cars were always shown with sleek backdrops, like Palm Springs or Hollywood with well dressed people hanging around the cars. When I was a kid I always imagined only rich people could afford them, most of the interiors had sort of a space age theme, with tambour door consoles brushed stainless steel trim, the swing a way steering wheel, and flamboyant interior colours and bucket seats. Always thought they were aspirational cars!

What an exceptional automobile. As you point out, this was one of Ford's finest moments. When you think that this was made in 1967, it was really advanced for its time. Further, that T-bird looks like it just rolled off the factory floor. Chris, thanks for sharing your fine automobile with us. Lou, another great segment. Every week you seem to find another treasure for your viewers. Thanks.

My goodness! A survivor with a perfectly intact landau roof! And the interior styling looks fantastic with its trim & the tilt a way wheel. Thanks for sharing Chris & his T bird, Lou!

13:07 one finger steering. Love it.

Class of the 60's classiest car. I'm a gm guy but this car is in a class by itself.

That is one of the most beautiful designs in Thunderbird history. It really gave meaning to the term "personal luxury car."

This generation of Thunderbirds took on a whole new vision for the personal luxury car segment. I’ve always thought that the Thunderbird was in a class by itself at this point because of the unique styling cues. What a beautiful survivor. Thanks Lou & Chris for sharing!

Tickle me pink Lou...you just keep coming up with gems!

What a sleek car - wow!

Imagine owning this car in 1967.......you would have been the cool guy in town....thanks Lou.

In January of 1968, my late, beloved father surprised the entire family (he was an engineer...never did anything that wasn't completely thought out, hence it was out of character) by bringing home a brand new 68 TBird two-door for my mom's birthday. It was Wimbledon White (no vinyl top thank God...the coupes were so much slicker without the landaus), with white interior and black carpeting and dash (with wood inserts). He bought it loaded (they still offered the 390 at the beginning of the model year, which he probably would have bought, but when he ordered it, only the new 429 was available). It was fairly loaded with cruise, 8 track stereo, power windows. My mom was blown away and we loved that car. The 429 was a brute...endless torque. Six months after that, my dad was so enamored of the car, he bought a used '67 4 door landau 'Bird with the 428 engine for himself. It was Brittany Blue with a dark blue landau top. Suddenly in six months we went from a 59 Ford Galaxie and a 66 Ford Galaxie to two Birds. We thought we were millionaires. They drove them for years, and I was so nuts about them, being in my teens, I took over all maintenance and became our master car detailer. They were always showroom. The side by side of the two engines was interesting. The 428 was more refined, turbine smooth, very quiet, not as fast. The 429 would pull a house off its foundations and spent most of its life in high gear...the torque was so massive the thing never downshifted. Great cars...I miss them. One error on this video: the owner said 1967 was the first year with the cruise control buttons in the steering wheel....actually it was 1966 when Ford began offering that option.

My first job in college in 1984 was working weekends at a garage by myself. The garage portion had long ago closed so I just sold gas & never left the building. One rainy Saturday I discovered the owner had his ‘67 Thunderbird Sedan stored in the garage, still like the day it rolled out of the factory. On slow days I’d just sit in it & imagine what it must’ve been like to own & drive such a beautiful piece of machinery, & being a teenager, what it would be like to go on a date with that enormous back seat. It was 17 years old then & still smelled brand new!

WOW! That is simply outstanding!!

Classic styling without anything to distract the eye. The interior design and layout are beyond belief for 1967. That curved rear bench seat is so classy. At the sake of being ridiculed by RU-vidrs, I’ve always had a thing for the suicidal four door T-Bird, too!

Lou, I am speechless! As a 14 year old in 1967, when others my age were interested in the latest "muscle cars", this was my ultimate fantasy car!!! Thanks so much for sharing this fantasy on wheels with us! To say it's just a survivor doesn't even begin to do it justice...It's a time traveler!!!

Wow. I'm so glad there are people out there that care for these rare survivors. This one is so nice I would be scared to drive it for fear of the other guy on the street. I sometimes forget that the Thunderbird was such a luxurious and elegant car. This one is so smooth and quiet. Thank you for sharing this beauty of a survivor Lou. They just don't get much better than this one. Take care.

One of the most beautiful T-birds around. 1967 was especially clean as side marker lights weren't required until the 1968 model year. Thanks for showing this beauty to us, Lou!

Incredibly, Thanks for this guys. what a swell show.

Yeah the new Lincolns have the "Eco-boost". This T-Bird has the "Ego-boost" engine. Man if I had that car being my age, I would take it on nice long vacations. I would not care if I put miles on it. I would enjoy it, love it, take good care of it, but yes, I would drive it. (not to work or the grocery store, but for pleasure and long trips). Highway driving does not wear out a car like city driving does.

That brochure tells us so much about marketing in the 1960's: Class, luxury, romance, Avant Garde artistry. Just about everything that would appeal to young lovers. What a wonderful piece of nostalgia.

There's only one other person in the world that would continue to give total love, and care to this particular T-Bird. Me!!! 😄 🇺🇸 ✌️ I need this car!!!

Thanks for this beauty Lou! I've always thought that its generation T-bird was underappreciated. Great survivor example. Chris is clearly a perfect curator for this one.

WoW !! This is a true time capsule 1967 T-Bird ! a 10 ++ ... I fell in love with my big brother's 67 2-dr Landau ....it was new...dark navy blue..with black vinyl roof with the s-bar....black cloth inside...fully loaded...I was just 16 then....I loved the back turn signals .... pure T-Bird..... the 67 was such a clean sharp new look for 67 .....total change from the 64-65-66 years .... Thank you so much for posting ...... years later I bought a new 1980 T-Bird ... it was the new smaller size Bird....she had the full length tail lights.... and hideaway headlights .....car was white with white padded top and red vinyl seats.....good times .back in the 80's .... BH...West Pa.......

Lou , you just hit it outta the park AGAIN with this gem!!! Thanx as always

Ford invented the personal luxury coupe when they expanded the Thunderbird from 2 seats to 4 in 1958. I know there's people who swear by the 1st gen 2 seaters as the originals and everything since is just a lounge chair with the Thunderbird name on it but until the early 70s they were very classy, elegant and sophisticated cars. This one is very highly optioned, cruise control in 1967 was still a relatively new technology to begin with. Very nice, I love it!

The Best Thunderbird I've seen. Gorgeous color! So much better looking than the cars today. There is absolutely no contest. Elegant and tasteful which I think modern society lacks. It's a true LADIES CAR!!

Awesome survivor, I don't know where to begin! It would have made a beautiful convertible, but it looks like that was not an option...I wonder if a sunroof was available. And thank you for asking him to put it in reverse, love seeing all lights work.

Wood trim on the ceiling! What a jewel of a ‘Bird! The sliding rear windows are stellar, too.

Beautiful orginal survivor!! I always liked these '67 to '69 T-Birds. I use to call them the "Fat Birds"...Too me they really look like a luxury car. Thanks for posting Lou!!..you are awesome!!

I never thought I’d appreciate a mid to late 60’s thunderbird even though many came with big engines. Lou, you’ve done it again! Forget the mileage, just the options on this car! Thx again Lou!

The T-bird is always a great car, a good friend of mine had one though his had a 429 in it. Thanks Lou!

What a gorgeous car! Omg... that's incredible. Dad had a '66 red&black Landau and he let me learn to drive on it and since it was five years old he let me have it. The steering wheel drew a lot of attention then too, it made a vacuum whoosh if I recall, but the '67 was the most elegant and refined year imo. Thanks to you both for the time-travel !

When I was growing up in the 70's one of my neighbors about a third down the block had one of these beauties. Light blue but not powder blue. One of the first cars I admired riding my bigwheel down the sidewalk. That and the dark red Galaxy 500 across the street.

I had to watch this AGAIN! It was like watching it for the first time. LOVE THIS BEAUTY! Right up my alley Lou

Sweet T Bird with all the details, nice Chris. Love the side profile, the back end with cool tail lights and front with headlight doors open only. The interior is magnificent. Thanks Lou!

Love the mid 60's T- birds but this is one special, no doubt! It is stunning considering the "original" pedigree this one has! Thanks Lou, for finding Chris and for him to allow you to showcase this gem!

Fricking absolutely gorgeous. I do love the earlier T-Birds......but these 67's are in a league of their own.

Amazing Tbird. My Grandma's '67 was triple black and she loved that car until the day she died.

Lou, that is one of the nicest cars you ever filmed! Thank you!

This Thunderbird is beautiful! The inside is just as amazing looking as the outside! It has alot of hidden surprises

Two American classics, the driver and his car!

That's not a car it's a work of art! Another one I have an original 1967 AMT model Kit of in my collection. Thanks for sharing Lou

Because cars like this were always so INCREDIBLY awesome, sometimes I wish I was a youngin 20 yr old back in 1967 so I could've enjoyed driving, owning, etc. these cars as new..

What a GORGEOUS BIRD !! Im luvvin the original wire " caps" YAHOO !! A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF AMERICAN STYLE & ART.

I had a great conversation with a man who shared with me that the model sitting in the backseat in that brochure picture Is his mother! She told him that she had a lot of fun on that shoot! She absolutely fell in love with that car...but by far, she loved the wardrobe and getting "The Thunderbird Glamour" was definitely something she always remembered! "Unique in All The World". Indeed!

Just , Wow! That interior was incredible.

one of the most elegant car interiors every designed

Fantastic car! Always loved this car.

Beautiful! This is a museum quality Thunderbird. It's funny to call a Thunderbird a Unicorn! Lol GREAT VIDEO LOU.

MY parents had a 68 Thunderbird it was the most beautiful car I've ever driven...

The 1967-1971 Ford Tbunderbird is one of the most underrated collectible cars out there.

Wow-wow-wow ~ Just spectacular _ Congrats to the owner for not letting that one get by you _ And compliments to our presenter, Lou, for grabbing the "moment" to create this here _ Very nice color combination, especially with the interior accents _ A survivor to the max _ Got to love that steering wheel action getting in and out of the Bird _ Wonder if this 2nd owner knows the car's story of these low low miles? . . :>)

👍Nice! My father in law (in PA) bought one of these heavy T-Birds new (blue-390-4v) & still sits in his garage. It’s been covered, stored since 1980. Has 70k. No rust/rot. He won’t sell nor clean it up. Really nice ol girl. I was always amazed by the cam switching mechanism for the turn indicators. Good stuff Sir LOU👍

The 1961-67 Thunda-birds were the nicest of all the T-birds. This one is amazing. Don't sell...you have a one of a kind. Thank you Lou for such a memorable experience of a fine American luxury sport automobile. The colors are just beautiful.

Gorgeous automobile! 👍🏻🇺🇸

OMG! Only 18 000 original miles to the odometer? That’s mostly impressive, for a 1967 ThunderBird of the third generation. This car is really the epitomy of luxury as it leaves me completely breathless. Needless to say that the chrome, the interior the trimmings and the sheet metal are all unrestored. From the back quarter panels, all the way to the front fenders, this car really offered a unique and sharp body style design, when it came out of the Ford factory, during its heydays, as opposed to the four door ThunderBird Landau, with the suicide doors. Like you said, Lou, this car is truly a remarkable survivor and a real masterpiece. Hi praise, for this one. Thank you so much, for this memorable presentation, Lou! Greetings and Salutations! from Montréal, Canada! Johnny! 💖👍😁✔️

I've always liked the '67 and '68's as well as others. Two, four door suicide, any model turns my head and widens my eyes! What, another clock working? Great car.

My parents had bought a 1968 Thunderbird "used" in 1969. 4 dr. Turquoise with a black "alligator grain" interior. Since I was only 4 years old some of the unique things I remember were the suicide rear doors,swing away steering wheel and the wrap around rear seat, 429 Thunderjet.

What a beauty ! I think I’ll sleep better tonight haven seen it ... Thanks, Lou ...

Back when they built real cars!! I graduated from high school in 1967, and this car has aged much better than I have! A triple WOW car for sure. Thanks Lou.

My uncle bought a new '67 4-door, with the clam shell doors-very unusual for the day-thanks!

Our next door neighbors when I was growing up had a solid yellow 1967 Thunderbird with the regular hard top. Light yellow with black interior. It stayed in the best shape for many years because they kept it in the garage for most of the time they had it!

wow, awesome T-bird lou, my kind of car. I'm a big fan of any T-bird up through at least 1972, and any year before that. love the class and styling of all of them!! thasnx!

My Dad had this car. At that time there weren't many cars with hide-away headlights. When a guy across the street asked Dad where the headlights were he told the guy that this was his day-car.

Beautiful. All ‘60’s T Birds are fantastic cars, this low mileage original is exceptional. I like T birds because whilst they had all the comforts of large cars, they were not particularly large by the standards of the day. Full of intricate details and probably the best logo of any American car. That rear seat was called a ‘cove seat’ and was introduced 8n 1964.

I Love these models that had the small back window. The models that didn't have the backseat side side windows just didn't look good to me...besides I need to see whtat's going on outside! This is a beautiful example of a 1967! Wow, what a clean engine bay. Your video was perfect there! Loved the interior. Your video was again perfect showing the interior. These birds had so much class. When I had a 91 (I think it was)...the class of the old birds like this one was all but gone. It was a fun car though. I always learn something from your videos. Today, it was the back windows sliding back instead of up and down! Thanks Lou. C'mon everyone - - let's give this one a big thumbs up!

It would seem that the prior owner(s) deserves some credit for the care of this car. It is probably is the best 67 Thunderbird on the planet. You do have an eye for the cars.

What a specimen. Even the pedals are clean as a whistle.

My favorite car of all time, I had a ‘67 with a 390, 4-door for 20 years and a 1970 4-door with a 429 when I graduated high school. Fastest car I ever owned. The ‘67 has my favorite look of that generation and the only car I prefer as a 4-door. But this one is stunning.

I guess with the Buick Riviera and Olds Toronado, in 1967 they had to make the T-Bird extra special. That interior was way ahead of its time. A truly underrated year for the Thunderbird.

Good day, Lou. Nice T-Bird! I’m not a Ford guy, but this is beautiful! ( I just tune in to everything you post, now!)

That 'Bird is truly awesome ! Judging from the brochure, that is the best color, none of the other colors had the look this one has ... I would drive it ...

What a beautiful survivor car. The 390 had plenty of power, but you get the 428 or the 429 in one of these Birds, and you've got a surprisingly quick luxury cruiser.

Another awesome discovery such a shame Ford is getting out of the car business but such a shame that they dropped the T-Bird. And yes my friend I believe you're on a mission from God to showcase automotive history. God bless your endeavor

Isn't this stunning? I was in 7th grade when this came out . One of my good friends had parents who bought that first four-door in yellow with a white top. I rode in that back seat many times.

My dad had a 68 T-Bird. We worn that Bird out. Beautiful car.

Hey Lou I like those 67 T Birds beside the 56

Beautiful, one of the nicest cars I have seen in my life

One of my favorites!! Wonderful job Lou!! 67-71, T-birds, 2doors, really do it for me! Was reading a Tbird facts and features book at Iola. Floor shift in console, only was offered 1 year.1968 or 1967. I have never seen one! In person, or in photos. It was an extra cost option, with very few takers. If you ever see one in your travels??? Love to see one!

What a beautiful Thunderbird, perfect color too!

What an amazing survivor! In high school my buddy used to drive his family's 67 bird to school. It was a gorgeous dark green 4 (suicide) door model with a 390. He let me drive it once. Acceleration was OK, but it was so softly sprung the road feel was non-existent - it was great! Thanks for another great memory, Lou!

I've always wanted a 64-66 Bird... however... this one takes the prize!!! I would be an amazing steward if you ever part with it!

This is my all time favorite Thunderbird.

Hi Lou, what a great 67 Ford T-Bird with the Laundau Top. My brother had a 68 Ford T-Bird 4 dr with the suicide doors, I thought it was so Cool. I liked your comment about the “lady” sitting in the back seat possibly “waiting” for someone because the car was so nice, and it would be nice if YOU could have her in one of your cars. Anyway, keep up the great interviews & thanks for having All the “ details “ pointed out on the car. It was Awesome to hear the “horn” on the car sound off as you guys drove off at the end! Stay safe & keep the great humor Lou it makes your job so much more enjoyable to watch. God bless you my brother.🙏🏻❤️✌️💚👍

That is one of the cleanest under-hood views I have ever seen, even in cars that are not being driven. The great thing is that if you ever felt the need for 100 more horsepower with no drop in reliability, it's quite possible. All in what is still a super-luxury car. Great job, FoMoCo.

Wow😍 Another beautiful Ford. Thanks Lou.

I LOVED my '67 Thunderbird! Mine was white as well, with a black vinyl top and black interior. That owner is very lucky indeed! He reminds me of the beloved actor Gale Gordon, who played "Mr. Mooney", Lucy's boss on "The Lucy Show"!

I love how the back taillight looks

Amazing!!! We had a ‘68-‘69 model 4-door Landau T-bird. It had suicide rear doors. I also picked up a cool Ford dealership promotional item -a Philco AM/FM radio beautifully executed in 1/25 scale as a maroon ‘67 T-Bird coupe. It was a a rolling model- the interior was where the speaker was placed. Was in perfect shape - Still worked!

Hi, Lou! This was the beginning of the fifth generation T-Bird, which was the first with the hidden headlamps and the first and only with a four-door. The details are just exquisite: the landau bars, the sequential taillights, the wrapover console, the woodgrain trim on the ceiling, the wraparound rear seat (would love to have a nice lady waiting there for me, too, LOL!), and I never knew that anything other than some station wagons had a window that opened and closed horizontally! And how that engine just whispers! As the slogan said, unique in all the world! Glad this one found you, and thanks to you and Chris for taking us all on this sublime luxury ride!

Normally I love classic cars but for me, this one is different from other classic cars because both headlights are futuristic, front headlights can be hidden, the interior is very luxurious and beautiful. This car has completely amazing designs, İt is an art!

Awesome Job at Carlisle, Thank You Lou!
