The T-bird was America's other sports car. To be competitive with the Corvette significantly more creature comforts were available. You couldn't get power steering, brakes or seat on a Vette. The 312 motor was bigger then the Vette's 283. That scoop on the hood is functional, it feeds fresh air into the carb. Great styling front to back!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail.
