Amos Minter is the premier dealer in the country for early Thunderbirds and other vintage Ford cars. I became aware of Amos after attending a car auction and was in the market for a 55, 56 or 57 Tbird. early Thunderbirds and other vintage Ford cars. I became aware of Amos after attending a car auction and was in the market for a 55, 56 or 57 Tbird. I made arrangements to visit to look at available cars and Amos was kind enough to spend the majority of the day with me showing me his inventory, testing driving several cars, showing me his personal collection and even treating me to lunch. I purchased an immaculate '56 Tbird and a '56 Ford Victoria hardtop like the car I had in high school. Amos' team deliverd the cars to my house in Georgia and has been in contact with me numerous times since to see how I am liking the cars and responding to various questions I've had about service topics. I only wish I lived in Dallas where I could have service performed on my cars by Amos' team. The price I paid for my cars is perhaps at the upper end of the market but I am immensely satisfied with the quality of the restoration on both vehicles and the after-sale support has been terrific. I consider that I've made a friend that shares my love of the classis Tbirds and Fords and I unequivocally recommend Amos Minter's dealership to anyone who is looking for an investment quality classic car.

This car was featured in several collector books du Thunderbirds. The first was a highly restored 1957 Thunderbird. The car was the special E series. This car was featured in several collector books during my ownership. The second car I purchased was a 1966 Ford pick up. Red and original. The third was the best. For a birthday present for my wife,Amos found and delivered to my door step a 2002 Thunderbird. Knowing my wife would like a yellow one, Amos found a brand new Yellow Edition. To this day we still talk of how my wife looked when she saw her new car being unloaded from Amos's enclosed trailer. I have never known a family who is more devoted to their business then the Minter Family. Their word is better than any contract could ever be. A real rare quality today!

I purchased a 55 T-bird from Amos Minter. He represented the car as a dry climate ground up restoration. He said the car was investment quality worth more than the sale price of $36,500.00. The car turned o the car as a dry climate ground up restoration. He said the car was investment quality worth more than the sale price of $36,500.00. The car turned out to be a rust bucket worth half the purchase price. Minter would not take the car back, and invited me to sue him. Minter is a thief and a crook. More

Very deceptive advertising pratices. They infer that they have restored the cars they are selling, but when pressed for more information, they cannot provide clear answers as to where they came from or what have restored the cars they are selling, but when pressed for more information, they cannot provide clear answers as to where they came from or what they did to improve the vehicle. Car was delivered with a dead battery and unsafe brakes after the Minters were asked to do a safety check and insure the car was reliable and not subject to breakdowns. Would not recommed this 1955-1957T-Bird dealer to anyone unless a very knowledgeable person went along with a prospective buyer. More

THis dealer stole the town and country radio from my '57 original Bird and put it into another customer's car which didn't have the original radio in it. Minter denied doing this, but my SS # was etched on original Bird and put it into another customer's car which didn't have the original radio in it. Minter denied doing this, but my SS # was etched on the back of the radio. Thief. Liar. I photographed the radio in the other customer's car and confronted Minter. He said he ddddddidn't kkkkkknow hhhhhow that cccccould hhhhhhave hhhhhappened. More

In my opinion, Mr. Minter is deceptive. My experience is the following: He makes you think that he did the restoration but carefully doesn't say so explicitly. While you are at his shop, he shows you where the following: He makes you think that he did the restoration but carefully doesn't say so explicitly. While you are at his shop, he shows you where the work is done and shows you the "sticker of approval" on his car, then later you discover that his shop didn't actually do the restoration on it when he is questioned directly. My recommendation is that you should ask him very direct questions and get his answers in writing before ever dealing with him. He says he will buy the car back if you want to sell it and then he doesn't. He says he will correct any problems with it and then doesn't. The car I bought had problems every time I drove it, and then he said he would not take it back. More
