Unveiled in 1955, the iconic Ford Thunderbird was marketed to the wealthy. The Thunderbird was billed as a personal luxury car, and buyers had high standards for style, power, and drivability without sacrificing comfort. Of course, none did it better in the ‘50s than the original Ford Thunderbird, which remains a style idol and a coveted classic. The first generation of this two-seat convertible was nicknamed the “Baby Bird” and offered a cushioned ride with a big powerhouse, automatic transmission, and air conditioning. If you are a classic enthusiast and like to turn heads, this 1955 Ford Thunderbird is an excellent choice. Located in New York, this Baby Bird is all set to go to its new owner’s garage.
This 1955 Ford Thunderbird is truly something that must be seen in person to be appreciated to the fullest. We’ll try to put into words as best as we can, starting with the alluring red exterior paint that reflects beautifully under the sun. that’s not all that gleams under the light: its chrome bumpers, grille, hood scoop, side mirrors, wheels, and all the other trim pieces you can notice bejewel the car like a sparkling dress. For a bit of trivia, the ’50 Ford logo was not the blue oval we are familiar with today and you can find it on the front nose, deck lid, and the white removable top of this Thunderbird. The car rides on period-correct wheels and white wall tires while the dual exhaust pipes exit through twin bumper guards on the rear bumper. The interior continues the theme with red and white colors and it is optioned with power seats and power windows. In front of the large two-spoke steering wheel is a big vintage speedometer that is tucked under an arch. The dash also features chrome trim and badges to elevate its appearance.
Ford fitted the 1955 Thunderbird with the 292 cu in (4.8 L) Y-block V8 engine that is able to produce 193 horsepower. It is mated to a 3-speed Fordomatic automatic transmission and Ford reports that the car can attain speeds a little over 100 mph. The stopping power is courtesy of front and rear drum brakes.

Think Thunderbird, and you’ll likely remember the original “Personal Luxury car” of the fifties or perhaps the revamped retro-inspired eleventh generation of the early 2000s. But the have been many Ford Thunderbirds in between, each one of them special and loved by dedicated fans across America. This 10th generation 1997 Ford Thunderbird LX features a reportedly low mileage of just 22,700 miles and looks to be in very good condition, both inside and out. This large front-engine, rear-wheel drive coupe is an excellent reminder of ’90s car culture and is reportedly all-original with up-to-date servicing for added reassurance.
The car that started it all, and gave Americans a taste of the fine Grand Touring style of motoring that Europeans had perfected. Ford’s T-Bird was billed as a Personal Luxury Car when it debuted in 1955, offering two seats, a brawny V8 under the hood, effortless long-distance cruiser capabilities, and the best luxuries in the cabin. Ten generations were made, with an eleventh homage-styled generation following them a few years later. Finding a T-Bird isn’t that hard, but you’d likely want a good one. Why not choose this 1962 Ford Thunderbird as your T-Bird of choice? Packing some useful upgrades, this car has done a little over 51,000 miles so far. So, it’s got plenty of life remaining, and will be glad to live it in your hands. Also, it’s a numbers-matching vehicle, a factor that ensures it will not only retain, but appreciate in value.
The eleventh generation of Ford’s Thunderbird was a retro-modern homage to the one that started the whole Personal Luxury Car craze in the United States. Made between 2002 and 2005, less than 70,000 were sold. That’s why finding one isn’t as easy as you might think. So, if you’ve been a Thunderbird fan, check out this 2004 Ford Thunderbird Convertible that’s up for grabs. The car comes with 30,500 miles on the clock, and since it’s a 2004 model, it’s got the more powerful engine that came from 2003 onwards.

Every generation of Mustang is iconic, but the original is considered genesis. This is ground zero, where the entire pony car genre was born. The 1964½ Mustang, as it’s known, started production a few months before the normal 1965 model year. Although Ford officially referred to all these Mustangs as 1965 Model Year cars, there were subtle differences made to the design after August 1964. Our featured car is an early-model 1964½ and features a new paint job and a rebuilt engine. If you’re looking for the perfect entry into the world of classic Mustang ownership, this classic stallion is the perfect way to do so.
In the '60s the automotive scene was on a roll, with each manufacturer pushing the envelope in terms of automotive design and performance. During this time, Ford was certainly one of the front runners. With legendary name plates like the Mustang and the Bronco making their way to life, taking ownership of these automotive legends means you are choosing to drive a part of automotive history. Present today is this lovely 1969 Ford Mustang Coupe, this 60s classic features a host of uber cool upgrades that makes it stand out and roar louder.
When it was introduced, the Pontiac Solstice was a nominee for the North American Car of the Year award. It was one of the last models built by the company before it was mothballed, which is a shame because, during its five years of production, this small, front-engine, rear-wheel-drive convertible sports car managed to find its way into the hearts of many. Our featured 2006 Pontiac Solstice Roadster is reported to be of exceptionally low mileage, with just 37,000 miles on the clock — that’s an average running of just over 2,000 miles per annum. This example features the naturally aspirated 2.4-liter Ecotec engine from General Motors, and puts power to the road via a five-speed manual transmission.

Ford’s Thunderbird was produced from 1955 to 1997 across ten glorious generations of excellence. The Thunderbird was America’s first Personal Luxury Car, a segment created by Ford to bring Americans a slice of the European Grand Touring experience. As time passed by, the fondly-named T-Bird would remain highly relevant until it was discontinued in 1997. Priorities were changing, after all. However, in 2002, Ford deemed it suitable to debut an eleventh generation for three short years. Intended as a homage to the original, it didn’t exactly sell like hotcakes, but over 68,000 units were shifted in total. So, if you’ve always been intrigued by these quirky retro-modern machines, we’ve got a 2002 Ford Thunderbird for your consideration. It’s an all-original example with all servicing up to date and a scarcely believable 19,500 miles on the clock!
