This 1964 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt is #17 of 100 examples built for a single model year and one of 59 said to have been equipped from the factory with a three-speed MX Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission.

The car was built on November 9, 1963, and delivered new to Vel’s Ford of Torrance, California the next month.

In recent years, the car underwent a refurbishment by Ambrosio Concepts of Denver, Colorado that was begun under previous ownership and was completed after the seller’s purchase in November 2021.

The car is finished in white with a reproduction period livery over beige vinyl upholstery, and power comes from a 427ci top-oiler V8 paired with a replacement top-loader four-speed manual transmission.

Equipment includes a 4.44:1 final drive, 15″ Cragar front wheels, steel rear wheels, an aluminum front bumper, a fiberglass hood and front fenders, plexiglass rear and side windows, front bucket seats, a dashtop-mounted tachometer, and a Hurst shifter.
