BEEE YOU TEE FULL 56 Thunderbird..... very original in excellent condition.

Good "patina" on the original paint and some stitching could be done on the immaculate interior trim.

There is a small rust bubble on the lower portion of the right door and power soft-top electrics may have a blown fuse, as the roof would go up.

This is a week-ends work to do a cosmetic resto or simply drive and enjoy at is. (It could do with a set of white wall tyres)

Darwin maybe, i don't recognise the police badging.

What's old, is new again... so it seems.

I had the pleasure of checking out a 1972 Statie yesterday.
Original owner, restored back to original condition, minus the vinyl roof.
Looked great , guess it should with the $30,000 spent.
Sorry, no pic, I did take 1 but it is blurry.

Geez, learn how to do a burnout.

1.  Ya don't need the wife to tell you when to give it the berries. (she could do with losing some weight too)
2. Its short wheelbase with plenty of snort, be ready for when it bits on the back off.
3. You've just rolled the friggin thing, just turn it off ya donkey.
4. The tilt tray will get you, you don't have to drive it off.
5. Does the steering not feel a bit...odd or vague.... one wheel has broken off, ya friggin turnip.
6. It is a very cool looking gasser and luckily an easy repair by the looks.
