Wonderful wheels and paint. Hard to know how extensive the modifications are but it does have front disc brakes. The first year of the third generation T-bird, the 1961 was powered by a 390 cu.
Heavy and softly-sprung, this was not a sports car. This standard 390 cu. in. V8 makes 315 hp but takes 11 seconds to reach 60 mph.
For sale at Auto Trends of Texas for $12,500. in Temple, Texas.
Could have a 390-cubic-inch V8 with 315 hp, or a 428-cubic-inch V-8 with 345 hp. Heavy and softly sprung. A true boulevardier.
