Its got a few little dings, needs one door, and some paint peeling with some surface rust, but other than that everything is all there and the motor does run, no cancer through the rockers but I guess it aint show quality clean... If your lookin for cleaner than this, youll have to find a restored ond repainted one!! Good luck cause I have been lookin and havent found one...

I don't want super clean.. just staight and somewhat mechanically sound. that year is a bitch to work on since Ford dumped all the $$$ into the T-bird and pretty much the Conti' was forsaken by Ford/Lincoln...

Well good luck anyways, Ive heard 65's are the hardest year to come by, especially in relatively good condition! I found mine in a barn that had been sitting for about 17 years, paid $1900 for her!!

That's a screamin deal man.. I'd have bought her for that too x 2 ~!

Unfortunately - there aren't too many barns in Southern Orange County, Cali'!

I do have a line on an old T-bird though... that's straight, and just had the 390 rebuilt fresh... All that's needed is paint and interior and a few other things... I just might... T-birds are cool too.. I've just always wanted those damned suicide factory doors... had a model of a '65 when I was a kid that my grandpa gave me that he got from the Lincoln dealer back in '65... I body dropped the model of course and painted it titanium silver... lol

Hey Lance, Id say build the T- Bird, it was my second favorite out of those style cars, and also, no one really does T Birds,, it seems like more and more everybody and their dog has a damned Continental... I hear what your sayin about the suicide doors!
