Wow words can not describe this black beauty! This triple black 1966 Ford Thunderbird was meticulously restored back in 1990 and according to the previous owner has only had approximately 500 miles put on it the last 30 years. It has been taken and shown in car shows the last few decades and has one many trophy's. It is a highly optioned bird with tilt away steering, power steering, power windows, power locks, power front disc brakes, am radio, fender skirts, dual exhaust, and is riding on its original rims with hubcaps. Its black exterior paint is laid out beautifully over a solid and laser straight body. Its floors, frame, and trunk floor are also excellent and detailed nicely. When you lift the hood you will be completely amazed on the engine bay and its high quality restoration. Its black bucket seat interior is also amazing from its dash to its rear shelf. But wait the best thing is the way this bird drives, hop in and drives this bird cross country in style and with comfort!

In 1966 this Thunderbird was a status symbol, it meant "you made it!" My Uncle had a Thunderbird like this, only in white & it had A/C. This car was "The Bomb!". Looking forward to see more!
No. You'd "made it" if you could afford a Corvette. That's still true today.
These had a way better looking interior interior then the bullet bird. But the exterior body on the bullet bird is nicer. But love this bird. Damn clean.
A real beauty! But noisy.
I had a '68 LTD with the 390, you could hardly hear it run. Especially inside. These are marvelous cars.
Lucky you, I always wanted a '68 LTD 390 or 428. I love the looks of those, the hidden headlights are so cool on those cars. I had the cheaper '68 Galaxie 302 and it too was extremely smooth riding and super quiet.
This is the one with the curved back seat. My Uncle had one and the rear was really amazing. You could almost "face" the other passenger.
I noticed that. Crazy.
My grandpa has one that I'm getting I have to put in a lot of work.
WTA beautiful car. The best looking T-Bird ever😍😍
Knew that there would be atleast one comment that goes something like this. I'm not a Ford guy but. Lol gotta love it.
Showing the engine great. showing the body cool. showing the seats front and back etc. nice. but I wish just one of you guys would do close-ups on the gauges, and the levers and what they did, because they look right out of an aircraft, and it would be nice to know and see. also you forgot the little turn signal indicator lights mounted on top of the fender. those too are a way cool touch on that era of cars.
Not sure if it was the same exact model year, his was convertible, but my best friend and I rolled thru high school with a T-Bird. Alway like the early 60’s T-Birds.
I may. Be buying a pretty clean/straight 1966 thunderbird for 700$ tomorrow pretty happy
I decided to read the other 6 comments first, Haha...
All I can say is ive loved these old birds since childhood fond memories, and this one is very impressive indeed!!! I can't imagine driving one in st louis now though without a/c. But as a kid it wouldn't of bothered me...
Gorgeous Vehicle!
They always keep talking when accelerating when the viewer wants to hear the engine .. lol
Beautiful Bird. I hope someone got that exhaust leak fixed.
I know im randomly asking but does any of you know a way to get back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly lost the login password. I appreciate any help you can give me.
@Shawn Keenan Instablaster :)
@Brodie Harley I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Brodie Harley It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my ass!
@Shawn Keenan happy to help =)
I had the same model, no rust. Emerald green, white interior. This one is great but I am sorry to say that I was not left speechless.
Nice car.
The video did its secondary job, I have bookmarked your website and will check out your inventory later today or tomorrow.
Have a good rest of the week.
Thank you Paul
@@CoyoteClassics You're welcome.
There are so many comments here about the lack of AC. To the purist who prioritized performance, they didn't want the extra weight of the AC components. Or they didn't want to spend the extra money as it was a costly option. Or, they didn't live in a climate where air conditioning was used all that much.
Why do you call a console, a council?
it's a 'murican thing. just like they think us Canadians 'think' we say 'aboot' (about) ....don't get THAT one. Muricans deft'ly say 'RUFF' for ROOOF. They will deny that one till the cows come home.
My grandmother who at the time was about 65-66 y/o had one of these new back in 1966. Except hers was burnt orange with the creamish landau roof and I believe it had the 427 or 429 V8 (correct me on this one). All the belles & whistles it had. She had for 3 years and they traded it in for a 1969 Olds Delta 88 . I wish I had that car !!! They were pretty common in the Detroit area between the Ford employees buying them , car collectors and enthusiasts. BTW she had 3 birds total. A 1961 , 1963 and the 1966. Granny was a hot rodder!!!! I guess.
Such a fine example of great craftsmanship but it has no A/C?
must've been removed in its lifetime. i have never EVER heard of a 60s Bird withOUT A/C. Maybe a good time to get a repro retro-fit updated A/C system from a Mustang shoppe.
It’s such a shame that the American automakers had such beautiful designs in the 60’s but in a mere 10 years, the auto designs were just horrible.
Beautiful car. If I had a car of that vintage, I would run resonators in addition to the mufflers to make it quieter.
Cool Ford ! 😎👍🏼❤️
James Bond had an Aston Martin. This would be Felix Leiter’s car.
Mins white amazing and spectacular car amazing I'm haylie poe hord roff
Inside the COUNCIL
The only thing that would make this car perfect on the interior is for the shifter to be on the console instead of the column. Otherwise it's a beautiful car. I had a pastor when I was a kid who always drove T-Birds. He didn't switch until the late 70's when they lost that heavy feel that classic cars have. He ended up switching to an Eldorado. lol A Lutheran pastor in an Eldorado. Hilarious.
nice council
Stunning. I don't see it on your website.
I don't like Ford but that's a beautiful machine I can deny
Where would you find parts for this t-bird. I also have a 1966 T-bird original color tan/gold. I'm slowly restoring it mostly all electrical work from here on out.
Well, my car has bad rust in the trunk. That I'm needing to do sheet metal work about. My 1966 Ford Thunderbird will never be the same again. Although, the engine is 700 horsepower.
Be careful detailing the dashboard , it is chromed plastic and the chrome can easily come off
I'm interested in how the PCV system was done. How was it done on the inside of the air cleaner lid? I'm assuming this engine had a draft tube system prior to the PCV set-up being installed.
I'll take one with ivory paint, black interior & top pls.
I think the 4 door version had suicide doors that year. I remember being in a showroom the year my folks bought a Ford Custom, and there was a white, 4 door TBIRD in the showroom!
The 4 door didnt come out until 1967
The ONLY change i would make is put some real wire wheels with Michelin Radials and slight lift kit on rear.
Oh i would have Black Real Leather wrap steering wheel to give the steering with thicker grab feel to it to make for a slightly more comfortable drive experience.
$20,000 seems like a steal.
❤❤❤😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘
What did it sell for ?
Sounds horrible, fix the exhaust leak ☹️
Rattling lifter...didn't shift right....this is a tired car.
I would only restore a 428 with A/C. The 390 was overwhelmed by the sheer weight of this car.
Nope. Not speechless.
its a console not a council
Nice car! Incorrect side moldings are a negative but the lack of Air Conditioning kills the car. A shame.
the side moldings are correct I have a white 66 tbird with the same molding along with the factory build sheet and dealer window sticker , however mine has A/C -- I am the 2nd owner
@@robertplatts1548 Those side moldings didn’t come from the factory. Most were dealer installed and added to the price. They may help protect the car in some small way but they spoil the looks.
No AC, No thanks !
NO A/C ! What were they thinking !
Probably came from up north, and AC was expensive option in those days.
Not the 428 either.
No A/C will leave you speechless!
No A/C
Please pay attention to your terminology. Your cars and videos are cool, but the term is spelled console, not council.
This wasn't the best year for the T-Bird. Ford started to cut corners.
No corners were cut until 1968.
Why would you leave a car running that sounds this shitty?
How much is this t bird? Do a 1968 or 69 DodgyDart?
Horrible video the engine was more noisy then the wind car shold have been started in the end of the video had to leave video after 4 minutes
@Marque I agree. These guys have really nice cars and really awful videos...replete with corny used car salesman BS. They would be well served to watch the Maple Motors videos by Nick there in Tennesee. People nowadays are completely turned off by the used car lingo deceptiveness, but are attracted to honesty. I would rather buy a lesser car that I know well than a better car that I feel has been misrepresented. There are Coyote vids where the presenter says the words, "No rust anywhere" while at the same time clearly showing rust bubbles through the paint, or inside the rear quarters in the trunk. This T-Bird, however, is awesome. 20g is a fair price for sure.
Thunderbirds were never a respected performance car. A Ford 390 V8 was the same engine you'd find in a Galaxie. The larger available engine was the same engine you'd find in a Lincoln. It was a "chick" car, frankly.
