I have a 1979 Ford Thunderbird Convertible that I have decided to let go. I have about 20 vehicles sitting here and I always think that I will get to them soon. That never seems to happe. In 1979-1981 Detroit did not build convertibles. There was some safety issue they were dealing with. Americans love their convertibles so an LA based shop converted TBirds, El Dorados, Lincolns, Camaros etc. in to open cars. They were not cheap but solved the problem This TBird was built by Custom Coach Works out of SoCal. I looked up the production numbers a while back. I don't remember the exact numbers but there were not many built. This was a barn find. It has been stored since 2001 and has less than 82,000 genuine miles on it! Even with the low miles it needs some attention. It runs and drives great. The top needs to be replaced. The driver side window and power seat do not work. I am sure that it is due to a bad connection. The interior is in very nice shape. The seats and carpet look good as does the dash. The body has no rust but the paint is oxidized. I can not get the heat or A/C blower to work. Again I think that is a connection issue. There are no DMV fees due. I have started the paperwork into my name. It has been out of trhe DMV computer so long that I have to take it in to have it verified. Other than that it is ready to go to the new owner. I am in Sothern California about 90 miles North of Santa Barbara and 10 miles South of Pismo Beach. I can deliver the car, after it is paid for, for $1/mile round trip. Up to 200 miles or so. If you have questions please contact Dana. Call or text 805 550 8502 I have a number of other cars for sale too. I have included a couple pics at the end. Also there are before pics of the Bird as I found it. There are also available a 1981 GMC ,1986 Fiero V6 and a 1931 Ford Model A roadster pickup 350 4spd please ask! The roadster has a small block Chevy. Blessings! Dana
