Only 20,674 Landau 63Bs were built in 1965, making this a rare and desirable collector’s car—ready for shows or comfortable long-distance cruising. Originally finished in Patrician Green, it was repainted in Wimbledon White in the early 1980s, giving it a clean, classic look. It features a white vinyl-covered Landau roof, wraparound chrome front bumper, quad headlights, iconic gun-sight front turn signals, sequential rear indicators, and a distinctive chrome pinched-loop rear bumper.
Recent 2024 service highlights include a full brake system overhaul (new master cylinder, calipers, and rear wheel cylinders), rebuilt carburetor, recharged A/C, new fuel tank and sending unit, distributor cap and rotor, fuel and air filters, and a fresh set of tires.
Power comes from a 390ci V8, factory rated at 300 horsepower and 427 lb-ft of torque, paired with a Cruise-O-Matic 3-speed automatic transmission. Additional features include 15″ steel wheels with fender skirts, front disc brakes, rear drums, and power windows. The interior sports front bucket seats, a curved rear bench, swing-away steering wheel, MagicAire heater/defroster with A/C, and an AM/FM radio. Simulated wood trim decorates the console, dash, and door panels, adding a touch of elegance.
The two-spoke wheel sits on a swing-away column and frames a horizontal-sweep 120-mph speedometer and factory gauges for oil, fuel, temp, and amps. The warranty tag confirms it as a 1965 Thunderbird Landau coupe built in Wixom, Michigan. Trim tag details include:
Body: 63B – Landau Coupe
Color: U – Patrician Green (original)

Date: 19M – Built December 19

A well-sorted example with recent updates and elegant styling—this ’65 Thunderbird Landau is a classic cruiser that’s ready to be enjoyed.
