This Ol' Bird has spent her entire life in the Great Northwest! Sold Brand Spanking New at Vemilye Motor Company in Tigard Oregon to a Customer just across the border in the Dry High Desert (Tri-Cities Area) of Washington State. Then to the Dry High Desert of Nampa, Idaho for many dry garaged and rarely driven years. Then it was sold to the Medford, Oregon area, for a short time it enjoyed being admired during several parades until a family illness forced it into barn storage for 7 long years. Now resting in the hands of the estate of the 4th owner and recently brought out of it's slumber...

Averaging just over 2,100 miles per year, this one is a TRUE SURVIVOR with factory documentation. 55 Years young and just as "Flighty" as ever. Always garaged, never abused and/or molested! This little "Thunderbird Green" Lady is truly amazing in her presence and 4 owner history. Includes ORIGINAL Factory/Dealer accounting invoice and related document file...

Free and Clear Private Party Titled in Oregon State. 4 owners with 118,000 Actual miles. This car appears as a well preserved, non restored and a very solid original. Professionally Refinished the correct "Thunderbird Green" factory color in 1995, looks wonderful but showing some expected patina from use and storage. The interior/carpet is believed to be original and the carpet has picked up a musty smell from moist Oregon barn storage (should be replaced) The headliner on the Hardtop is great. The Soft top is White and in good usable condition but showing a few rack pinch areas to canvas material. All glass is good with the exception on a minor crack in the top forward corner section of the drivers window that is hidden by the wind wing when up. The engine appears as the original and was overhauled at 108,000 miles. Runs well and the  Ford-O-Matic Tranz shifts as designed.  No excess leaks were noted but some common seepage should be expected as with most classics. The exhaust is old and the tailpipes are weak (see undercarriage photos)  Sitting on older COKER wide white Radials. Due to the extended storage period the fuel tank has recently been drained and cleaned. Study the photos and feel free to ask questions...
