99-Year-Old Restoration Expert Donated This Ford Thunderbird, Rare Low-Mile Survivor?

Sales increased by approximately 10K units, and most buyers picked the base engines.

The engine lineup started with a 390ci V8s rated at 275 and 315 horsepower, while the 427 could be ordered with 410 or 425 horsepower. A 428ci unit was also offered with 345 horsepower for customers choosing the Thunderbird Special.

The 1967 Thunderbird in these photos spent its recent years with a 99-year-old restoration guy, and eBay seller twurts explains that the car was donated recently to be used for charity. We're not getting many specifics about the car, but the photos confirm that the Thunderbird requires essential work in all key areas, so it's a project aimed at someone willing to do more than a basic overhaul.

The American carmaker launched a new four-door sedan with suicide rear doors, and all these changes worked like a charm, making the series more intriguing for local buyers.

The car sells with many extra parts, likely as the previous owner wanted to use them for restoration, but it's unclear what you'll be getting as part of the deal.

The T-Bird has been sitting for the last two years, and the transmission is no longer in the car, with the drive shaft missing. However, the engine's condition is unclear, as the seller says they didn't try to run the Thunderbird.

The unit hiding under the hood is the 390ci V8, but its condition is unclear.

The seller describes the car as a low-mileage survivor, but considering the previous owner was working on a full overhaul, interested buyers should investigate this claim thoroughly. The low miles aren't necessarily low, as the odometer indicates over 56K miles, but if the Thunderbird is a survivor and everything is still stock, the mileage doesn't make that big of a difference.

Considering that the Thunderbird would be used for charity, it landed on eBay with a no-reserve auction. This means that the highest bidder will take the car home when the digital fight ends, and this has fueled a fierce battle on the auction site.

18 people are already fighting for this 1967 Ford Thunderbird, but the top offer is only $915. However, considering that 61 people have also added this car to their watchlists, more buyers could join the battle in the last few hours of the auction, pushing the selling price significantly higher. The auction will end in three days.

The vehicle is parked in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania, and considering its condition, you'll need a trailer to take it home. However, make sure you contact the seller and arrange an in-person inspection before making an offer.
