Info on my thunderbird

Can you help me identify my thunderbird. I know it's a 1960s and was a prototype at the Detroit auto show but I do not know much else

There's no way that's a thunderbird. It looks nothing like any thunderbird ever made.

Re: Info on my thunderbird

I've gone through my collection of info and I've seen nothing like that. It could be a one off custom like I have this link here for a 1956 that was customized in 1960 by Don Von Dwingelo.

That's a kit car, possibly some variant of a Gazelle kit car. It is not a Thunderbird and not a prototype of one. The Detroit Auto Show story is doubtful as well.

Why does everything in the garage have Euro plates when you're in Arkansas? Troll thread?
