The 1964 Ford Thunderbird received a major restyling, changing it from the rocket-ship-like models seen earlier in the '60s. Unfortunately, the less-rocket-like engine resulted in the Thunderbird falling off of muscle car enthusiasts' lists.
A 6.4-liter, 390-ci V8 rated at 300 horsepower took 11 seconds to go from 0-60 - not exactly muscle car numbers. However, the styling was attracting a new crowd of customers interested in the sleek hardtop, malleable convertible, or vinyl-roofed Landau. 92,465 T-birds were sold, a vast increase from the previous year.
What owners say
"Owners of the 1964 Ford Thunderbird admire its classic American convertible appeal and original features. Many appreciate the unique driving experience, especially on warm days, but some find handling and braking to be lacking. Overall, there's a sense of nostalgia and potential for this vintage car, although it may need some work to reach its best performance."
What's not to love about a classic American convertible? It doesn't stop very well, and handles like an elephant riding a skateboard. But on a warm summer day/night, there's no place better to be.
April 9, 2008this car is all original. It has the stock 390, it has the steering wheel that tilts to the side when you are entering or exiting the vehicle. the tunk space could easily fit 3 or 4 bodys in it. (not that thats what I put in the trunk) but you get the Idea. It runs and drives like a marshmellow down the road. I am not a huge fan of the ford but this car has great potential. I don't plan on keeping it stock only because it has no real value as an original.
