The ONLY Thunderbird recorded by the
Gracelands museum that Elvis bought (November
1961) was a 1962 Sports Roadster which he loved because
of the Kelsey-Hayes Wire Wheels. Red with black interior, 390
Sports V-8 M engine with triple carbs giving 340hp
He drove it home but 2 days later the wire wheels lost a couple of
spokes, Elvis phoned Edsel Ford himself and was told to return the car
for a full refund !
Elvis never bought or drove
another Ford.....
