2002 Ford Thunderbird Roadster

2002 Ford Thunderbird Roadster

Ford revived more than an American icon when it boldly resurrected its unique Thunderbird sports/personal car for 2002. It also, as events would have it, reprised an historic Motor Trend Car of the Year win. Our forefathers here named the '58 T-Bird-the first of the larger, four-seat versions-as Car of the Year, hailing "the overall concept...that combines safety with performance and comfort with compactness.". For 2002, we're happy to bestow that honor again, recognizing today's Thunderbird for how it combines heritage with modernity and pleasure with practicality.

For consignment, a first year retro, low mileage, (35,317), fully equipped car. This car presents in very nice condition with the usual blemishes one would expect on a car from 2002 with 35K miles on it. A hardtop and soft top version so you can drive it and have fun year-round and a hardtop cart and a boot cover for when the top is down.

Exterior
Torch Red loudly announces its presence and shouts out it is in very nice condition with straight steel, and well minded gaps. A black canvas power convertible top, in very good condition, raises and lowers quickly and effortlessly with only minor staining of the canvas. If you want more protection, put on the available hard top complete with the harken back to the 50's porthole window, and lightly smoked glass on either side and brave the elements. This hard top is also Torch Red…let me go get a fire extinguisher. Retro styling cues are seen throughout in the chrome eggcrate grille, fog lights that emulate the dagmars of yore, a simple hood scoop and those sexy rocket style taillights. Chrome cast aluminum wheels are noted on all 4 corners and are wrapped in newer blackwall 17" tires.

Interior
The dual bucket interior in black and torch red leather, wraps numerous surfaces, with only the buckets showing slight age wrinkling on the smooth bolsters. No errors here on the carpet, headliner of the hardtop, or dash surfaces. White faced gauges with black numbers and indicators are embedded into the curvaceous dash and are fronted by an original steering wheel. Dual temp zones, an AM/FM/6 CD stereo, power seats, power locks, and power windows, along with a tilt and extending steering wheel column are some of the options on this highly appointed car. Even the door panels get into the retro action with a mix of smooth black plastic, ribbed black vinyl and a torch red vinyl insert all looking good.

Drivetrain
A 3.9 Liter Dual Overhead Cam V8 sits within a clean engine bay. This is attached to a 5R55N 5-speed automatic transmission that shifts quietly and smoothly. A 3.58 conventional rear axle is on the back.

Undercarriage
Clean rust free and structurally sound no problems here. We can note 4-wheel independent Macpherson strut suspension, 4-wheel power disc brakes with ABS, and dual exhaust with what appear to be the original mufflers. The only flaws that appear are some splashed road dirt and a few scrapes on the black X-bracing, otherwise its miles of Torch Red rust-free steel.

Drivability
A quick starting procedure and on the test track this car performs beautifully. No issues crept up on my drive and all functions performed swimmingly. A true pleasure to drive.

A first-year reintroduction Bird with some nifty chrome wheels, low miles, in Torch Red, with a hardtop attachment, and a soft top. Talk about fun all year round. Yours for the taking, and you better act fast since I've always carried a torch for these retro rides.
