I’d just never seen a 4th gen like mine being raced before... Although apparently there is a racing team in New Zealand that races a pair of these things. They are my new heroes.

Never seen that before, but I’ve seen Galaxies, so why not? :)

They’re surprisingly reasonably priced too ... which is somewhat problematic for me actually :)

Makes sense. They are very stylish cars.

Don’t get your hopes up.  I got about tree-fiddy.

Found one. It has mechanical damage, but otherwise it’s remarkably clean and the current bid is $100. https://www.copart.com/lot/40861960/salvage-1964-ford-thunderbir-ks-kansas-city

Do it! Do it! Do it!

How in the hell did that end up at CoPart?

Luckily for my wallet, it’s too far away.

Yeah how this ended up there makes no sense. Sure, it has mechanical damage, whatever that means, but even that’s usually not the end of the world for a clean classic car. Just LS swap it and it’s fine ;)

They are indeed, cheaper than any other stylish Ford of the era it seems. Troubling ;)
