This rare bird is one of only 120 such equipped Thunderbirds for 1962. Today, according to Historian William Wonders boo, "THUNDERBIRD Restoration Guide 1958-1966" only 46 survive.
This car was born on January 31, 1962.
Other interesting happenings on January 31st include:
1865 - Congress passes 13th Amendment, abolishing slavery in America
1865 - Gen Robert E Lee named Commander-in-Chief of Confederate Armies

This Sport Roadster is currently undergoing a complete rotisserie restoration which can be seen at www.tbirdsquare.com.
(The picture is a file photo, a "real" picture will be added when the restoration is complete) It is one of 11 Thunderbirds I presently own of which includes the 1963 "ITALIEN" Fastback concept car. The ITALIEN is ONE of ONE!
