1963 ford thunderbird paint colors
The cabin (and trunk) floors are covered in turquoise carpet (with rust stains noted only in the trunk).
All upholstered surfaces show virtually no wear and absolutely no damage. Fold-forward front bucket seats and 2-place rear bench feature smooth, white vinyl sides with vertically pleated turquoise vinyl inserts, and the same turquoise pleated-vinyl covers the rear package shelf. Horizontal-design door trim combines the two colors-white vinyl-upholstery on top, turquoise, vertically pleated vinyl on the armrest and lower panel-with chrome trim in between. Inside, the turquoise-and-white combination is as stunning as it is on the car's body. Majestic® radial, thin-whitewall tires mounted on stock wheels with wire-wheel-style covers and Thunderbird-emblem centers complete the period-correct look. The chrome trim all retains an excellent, well-maintained finish, and all the original trim-headlight surrounds, hood scoop grille, full-length fender-top molding, triple “hashmarks” on the doors, cabin-glass surrounds, side mirrors, impressive taillight surrounds, and the Continental Kit-is properly in place. All factory-mounted badging, including the Thunderbird hood emblem, similar Thunderbird emblems on the sailplanes, and script “Thunderbird” badges on the rear fenders remains in place. The car's cabin glass and lighting lenses are likewise clear and free of damage. There is no damage to the sheet metal, no dings, dents, or scrapes. Together, the two exterior colors make a strong and appealing early-Sixties statement, and the Continental Kit spare-tire carrier (in chrome and gloss white added to the turquoise-painted rear bumper) puts an exclamation point on that statement. (For the best assessment of paint quality, be sure to inspect the close-up photographs of the sheet metal in the accompanying gallery.) In the same way, the white hardtop roof's gloss white paint is flawless. The turquoise exterior finish is outstanding across the entire car, from the bumper and grille painted in this color, across the expansive hood and beautifully sculpted flanks (with rear skirts), to its long rear deck. Its condition shows every sign of superb owner attention to the car's care and maintenance over the years. The car's odometer shows 77,309 miles, or fewer than 1,350 miles-per year on average since new.
