2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$22,500

The Ford Thunderbird was made between 1955 and 1997 across ten generations, and redefined the Personal Luxury Car for Americans. In fact, it created the segment, largely inspired by the Grand Tourers of Europe. So, in the 2000s, Ford was feeling a little misty eyed and decided to create a rose-tinted eleventh generation homage to this iconic nameplate. Enter the retro-modern Thunderbird that was made between 2002 and 2005. Styled by Jack Telnack, the car sat on the Ford DEW98 platform, used an engine from Jaguar (who Ford owned at the time), and marked a return to roots of sorts, in that it was a two-seater, just like the first generation. Over 68,000 examples were made, and we have one for sale. Say hello to this original owner, all-stock 2002 Ford Thunderbird from South Jordan, Utah, that’s got just 13,085 miles on the clock.

PENDING SALE
$44,999

The famous Ford F-Series was born in 1948, as America was emerging into a post-war world of promise and prosperity. Now in the fourteenth generation, the F-Series has got to be the world’s longest-running truck series, if not one of the longest. Today, the F-150 is the most popular variant as the half-tonner, but if we look at the first generation, the range simply started with the F-1 as the half-ton variant. That’s what we have here, a 1950 Ford F-1 Restomod from Groveport, Ohio. It’s received a thorough makeover with a 350ci V8 under the hood, an automatic gearbox, a converted 12-volt electrical system and more. If you want to own a classic Ford truck that you can actually enjoy driving, this 78,000-mile machine is your best option.

$112,499

Few automobiles embody timeless elegance like the 1935 Packard Twelve 1208 Limousine, offered here by Exotic Car Trader. Born during an era when luxury marques such as Duesenberg, Pierce-Arrow, and Packard defined American prestige, this limousine was crafted in spite of the Great Depression, a period that forced many rivals into collapse. While Packard itself would close its doors in the late 1950s, the 1930s remain a highlight of its history, producing masterworks like this 1208. Extensively restored and accompanied by complete records, this limousine blends grandeur, craftsmanship, and historical significance into one unparalleled offering.
