Ford Thunderbird 1961 Description

I've finally come to realize that it's time for me to let go of the last of my Thunderbird collection. So I'm listing my favorite car, my beautiful 1961 Thunderbird convertible. This was always one of my dream cars to own, and I purchased it in 1999 with about 63,000 miles on the odometer and since then I've only driven it another 2000 miles. This car has not been on the road for the past 4-5 years although it does start, run and drive, and stop too!
The starting bid price is my reserve price, so there is no hidden reserve price. You bid, you buy!
I'm going to do my best and be honest about the condition of the car, and this may make it sound like it's actually in worse shape than it really is.
However, it's starting to suffer from a lack of being driven and sitting alone in the garage. There are some fluid leaks, a transmission leak is obvious, and I would guess that there would need to have some seals replaced that may have dried out while it's not been driven.
Somewhere before I bought the car is looks to have been damaged on the passenger side as I tried to show in one of the photos. The repairs don't seem to have been of a high quality but even so this car looks great from 20 feet away. I do have a "patch panel" for around the rear wheel that is included in the sale. The front bucket seats have some separation and a new set of bucket seat skins will also come with the car.
The title for the car is a "Duplicate" as the Postal service somehow lost the first one that the state sent to me.
I've listed all the things I can think of that might be "wrong" with the car when in fact it's a great running and looking car that gets a lot of attention when I've taken it out. It's surprising to me that some people don't even know what it is until they read the script on the fender.
PLEASE EMAIL ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS
As a bonus, there are many extra parts that you can also have: front and rear bumpers, front and rear windows, rust free front fenders, doors, hood and trunk lid. Along with many boxes of misc interior and exterior parts some of what is shown in the last photo........WITH JUST ONE CATCH.
YOU HAVE TO PICK UP THESE PARTS YOURSELF WHEN YOU COME TO GET THE CAR. I WILL NOT SHIP THEM, PACKAGE THEM OR FILL THE CAR WITH THESE PARTS.
IF YOU DO NOT PICK UP THE CAR YOURSELF YOU DO NOT GET THE PARTS
