That is the correct color for that car, too!  Gorgeous!

That car in that exact color was what got me into cars at about 12 years old.  My father got me a subscription to Hemmings Motor News and I used to spend hours reading the tiny little printed ads.

Its a striking yet simple design. a concept that has been lost on modern cars. Now you can get striking, but good luck with simple.

Never thought of it as strange.

I adore Marc, especially his album The Rainy Season. I’d say, of the 11 songs on that album, at least 3 would make my top 5 00 list of tunes.

You can have this one if I can have a green on green on. Or pink on pink

These can be had for relatively reasonable money, too.

This one in particular is at 16500, which I think is on the high end. I also found a running project on near by for 6,000. but it was just a boring off white color.

edit: just found this sick lowrider for 13200  https://milwaukee.craigslist.org/cto/d/1963-ford-thunderbird-custom/6738556660.html

A p ink on pink T-bird? Are you auditioning for a Grease remake or something?

Yes, that is very much the best T-bird! These are shockingl y undervalued too. Of course, they’re still way too pricey for me.

I think 16K is optimistic too, I was thinking it might be a 10-12K car. Of course, show up with 12K in cash, and it very well could be yours. Much better idea to buy one that’s already nice than to restore one, as these are not high dollar cars, you will likely run in the red with a project.  Lowrider seller probably isn’t turning a profit.

Just like with old Cadillacs and a few other cars, these are an awful lot of style and presence for the money.

oh I’ m sure you couldn’t build that lowrider for the money. heck the paint, if its done right, could be half the price of the car.

A lot of cars aren’t “worth” restoring. heck my Cabriolet will never be worth what I’m eventually be putting into it. it’ll always be a maybe 4 000 dollar car, even with a TDI swap, custom interior, and a new top.

Driver quality cars are the way to go.  One like the main T-Bird you posted appears to be ideal - nice looking, but not so perfect to where it can’t be driven.

I’m in the same boat. I could easily spend 50K+ restoring the fintail to have a 20K car when I am done - and driving it would depreciate it.

This just screams successful,  upwardly mobile 1960s middle management. Should come standard with a Trilby, a narrow lapeled suit, and a pack of cigarettes.

Those tail lamps are amazing.  Beautiful and unique car from ‘Murica’s golden age.

It reminds me of the Enterprize’s engines, I’m not enough of a Trekkie to know the actual term

Yeah.  Instant sci-fi vibe, from before the genre was even coined.
