1989 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe
For Sale is one of the NICEST, and quickest Ford Thunderbird Super Coupes on the planet. Rust free body with beautiful laser straight body panels, completely original and FLAWLESS paint, interior, extremely clean undercarriage, and engine compartment. With just over 28,000 original miles, the car has a completely clean Auto Check report. It lived nearly all of its life in Ohio, but by the condition of the body, paint, undercarriage, and engine compartment, it has NEVER seen any wintry conditions, much less even any rain.
EXTERIOR: The Platinum Silver Metallic paint is all original and is in EXCELLENT condition. Even the original pinstripe and the SC logos on the front fenders are flawless and like new. There are no door dings, no paint chips, or scratches anywhere. I just had the entire body buffed and polished and it looks excellent. The glass is all in excellent condition, and the headlights and taillights show no yellowing, fading, or discoloration whatsoever. The American Racing Torque Thrust II Anthracite wheels shine beautifully with no curb rash, nicks, or flaws anywhere. It also has fairly new set of235 55 17 Pirelli Tires in excellent condition. Original SC Wheels that came on the car are in perfect condition, in boxes, and come with the sale.
INTERIOR: A 100% NON SMOKER Car.The Platinum Silver cloth interior is in EXCELLENT condition. All seating areas, headliner, door panels, carpet, dash, seat belts, and new Thunderbird floor mats are in excellent condition. Power windows, door locks, cruise control, AM FM Cassette original factory sound system that all work perfectly. The gauges, dash lights, interior lights, and powers seats all work perfectly and are fully functional. The AC Blows very cold on those hot sunny days. The entire interior and seats look like they have never been used. The trunk compartment is in EXCELLENT condition and looks showroom new.
MECHANICALS: The original 3.8 L Supercharged V-6 power plant runs perfectly. It has a few tasteful mods done to it to allow it to breathe and run better. An upgraded supercharger with an overdrive pulley, so there’s a bit more boost on tap, and with the Roots blower, you’ve got full boost before you can get your foot on the floor. There’s an upgraded cam inside, a cold air intake, roller rockers, and a set of custom headers which all surely add up to a significant power boost over the stock motor. Paired with a slick shifting AOD 4 - speed automatic overdrive transmission, and mild shift kit, the SC is a peerless high-speed cruiser and a formidable car on twisty roads, where the athletic all-independent suspension can really go to work. Add in 4 wheel disc brakes with drilled and slotted rotors, ceramic brake pads, fat sway bars, and a burbling dual exhaust system, suddenly this car makes a 5.0 L Mustang look pretty basic. The car runs, drives, and stops flawlessly. And it is EXTREMELY QUICK ! A true JOY to drive, or just cruise. The car needs absolutely NOTHING, it is in perfect mechanical condition. I just recently had the car gone through completely, and there are NO ISSUES whatsoever.
This car has been garage kept all of its life. It also has been maintained very well. All fluids have been changed and services performed as required by manufacturer’s instructions at required mileage. This car runs and drives flawlessly. You can drive it anywhere in the USA without concern. Just turn the key, hear it roar to life, and DRIVE !
Complete with all the original parts to take it back to stock, and a complete folder of documents from the car’s history, this is a rare find.
