Look at the warranty plate that is attached to the rear (lock) face of the left door. The plate tells you all the imfo. you are looking for. You will need a service manual to covert them. If you send them to me I will convert them for you if you don't have a service manual.

Thanks alot for your help... I thought they would need some sort of conveerting when I looked at them the other day, what manual is it I need,?? I am in the process of finding several catologs for this car to start learning about this car, and also, how do you take the seats out?? I can't figure it out as easily as most cars, mainly the fronts but the backs also if you dont miond typing for me, thanks for all your help on here so far,,,,,

Matt,
One place you can get the maual you need is the Bird Nest, Port, Or.
Call toll free-800-232-6378 or go to their web site-www.tbirdparts.com
The shop manual will give you all the info you need to fix most anything on your Bird.
I think the front seats are bolted up from underneath the car-have a look. As for the rear, first, pull out the 2 rear arm rests, and pull up really hard on the very bottom of the bench seat- It'll take some strengh but it will come. The back's of the seats unbolt with 2 bolts. You'll see them when you get the lower bench off.
Go to this web page for interior/exterior paint codes for the Thunderbirds. http://automotivemileposts.com/contentstbird.html. Look for the original factory color in out-of-the-way places like the floor boards or in the trunk. You need the "1965 Ford Thunderbird Shop Manual" . The show up on eBay regularily. Available for $35 tops.
I just clicked on the web address in the above message and go zilch on my equipment. I think it might be because it's buried in the forum message. eMail me if you can't get the web page . I'll send you the web page address in an eMail which should work. [email protected] the web site has LOTS of info on all the Thunderbirds over the years
