After a long search I have finally added another Ford Thunderbird Hard Tops to the collection.
This is the later 214S edition, with an interior and suspension, good suspension too. This only comes in dark grey and deep red, just as the earlier version only comes in pale green and cream top.
I do wonder whether the pillar shouldn’t have been black. It looks odd in the roof colour but that’s how it came out.
This is an absolutely immaculate, beautiful example of the popular model. I didn’t have one as a child but I would have treasured it like someone has done for this over the past 60 years.
You will not find a better example. Nor will I so it’s not cheap.
