With special fender badges, real wire wheels, and a fiberglass tonneau cover that effectively converted the car into a two-seater, the limited production Thunderbird Sports Roadster commanded admiration and respect on America's roadways in 1963. This third-generation convertible's sleek styling, graceful lines, and jet-inspired fins and taillights gave it the unmistakable look and feel of a rocket ship. Launching it from 0-60 in just 11 seconds, a big 390-cubic-inch engine provided this futuristic "Bullet Bird" with a timeless combination of style, sophistication, and power that continues to impress car enthusiasts today.
