1968 Ford Thunderbird Landau Coupe
Description
The 1968 Ford Thunderbird Landau Coupe is a well-kept and attractive example of Ford’s bold fifth-generation personal-luxury coupe, known for its formal roofline and distinctive design. Finished in green with a black alligator-grain vinyl roof and landau bars, it delivers classic late-1960s Thunderbird style with sequential taillights, hideaway headlights, broad chrome bumpers, and a strong, upscale road presence. The car rides on whitewall tires and benefits from prior mechanical work that included braking and suspension attention.
Power comes from Ford’s 429ci Thunder Jet V8 with a four-barrel carburetor, paired with a rebuilt 3-Speed C6 Automatic transmission. This setup provides strong big-block performance, smooth torque delivery, and easy long-distance cruising. Power steering and power-assisted front disc brakes help the large coupe feel composed and comfortable on the road.
Inside, the black interior features front bucket seats, a rear bench, woodgrain trim, air conditioning, and a factory Philco AM radio, along with a discreet Alpine head unit for added convenience. The overall layout remains unmistakably Thunderbird, blending comfort, style, and V8 power in one of the most distinctive American coupes of the era.
