The gauges have that 60s-cool setup that is so intricate that we know no factory would ever dare try in modern times. This also it includes controls for the air conditioning (now running modern R-134a.) And with style a priority in these T-birds, the swing-away steering wheel was also standard. A center console was standard equipment, and the way the wood paneling is laid out reminds us all the driver is king. The factory-correct beige seats have a well-coordinated contrast with the darker tan areas of the interior. Personal luxury really meant something in 1964, as the tasteful bucket seat interior offers plenty of eye candy for both driver and passengers.

And the addition of Cragar wheels only increases the attention this coupe commands. In the rear, it's a mirror-like endcap for one of the most interesting trunk lines to ever hit the road. The front has a swoopy design the frames the headlights and surrounds the grille.

The bumpers are some of the best integrated forms ever put on a vehicle.

And the B-pillar ornamentation signals this is a Landau roof model – nearly three times rarer than the standard '64 hardtop.

After all, items like the shark-like nose and hood scoop artfully blend with the fender skirts and vinyl roof for a terrific total presentation. In fact, with a reliable V8, automatic transmission, and ice-cold A/C, and this is a classic coupe that you won't be afraid to take out any day of the week.Ī golden T-bird from this generation is the perfect blend of aggression and elegance. This 1964 Ford Thunderbird might just be the most affordable way to take home a comfortable cruiser that also turns heads the moment it leaves the garage. NICE DRIVING CLASSIC, RARE LANDAU ROOF, 390 V8, COLD AC, PS, PB W/FRNT DISCS!
