about this car

Thunderbird Sports Roadster production numbered 1,427 units in 1962, but just 455 in 1963, making them rare birds. Even rarer were Thunderbirds ordered with the monstrous 390-cubic inch tri-power V-8, which was designated by an M in the VIN; thus resulting in the nickname of “M-Code” cars. These cars breathed through a set of three Holley two-barrel carburetors and put out some 340 horsepower at the crankshaft, which is to say they were plenty capable of shaming any Corvette-driving challengers. Ford turned out just 37 M-Code Sports Roadsters in 1963.
