What’s special about this listing

1964 Ford Thunderbird Hardtop - Original Survivor
Asking Price: $17,500
VIN: 4Y83Z136760
Vehicle Overview
This fourth-generation "Flair Bird" is an exceptionally preserved example of Ford’s 1960s personal luxury flagship. Built at the Wixom, Michigan plant on January 10, 1964, it remains in highly original condition, showcasing a rare color palette that captures the mid-century modern aesthetic.
Exterior & Originality
The exterior is finished in its factory-correct Pea Green/Yellow hue (identified as Florentine or Pagoda Green), a color known for its shifting tones in different lighting [User Description]. While the data plate shows code "1," this vehicle appears to be a factory error or special-order unit, adding to its unique provenance for collectors.
Interior & Appointments
The cabin features a rare and highly desirable Gray-Green Leather interior, a premium factory upgrade [User Description]. The cockpit-style layout is fully intact, including:
Swing-Away Steering Wheel for ease of entry.
Floating-line speedometer and four distinct gauge pods.
Wrap-around rear "lounge" seating and full-length center console.
Mechanical Specifications
Engine: Numbers-matching 390 cubic-inch "Z-Code" V8 producing 300 hp.
Transmission: 3-speed Cruise-O-Matic automatic.
Features: Power steering and power brakes were standard for this model year.
Rear End: 3.00:1 axle ratio for effortless highway cruising.
Condition Notes
