Background Story of this 1956 Ford Thunderbird

Overview of 1956 Ford Thunderbird For Sale by Owner

One of Ford’s most fondly remembered marques, the Thunderbird created what was called the Personal Luxury Car category when it launched for the 1955 model year. Ford was paying attention to the European segment of Grand Tourers, and wanted to give Americans a slice of that stylish and luxurious long-distance motoring experience. After all, America’s highways were being built and upgraded, and soon, the well-heeled would love to drive their own luxury car across the country, from posh hotel to posh hotel. So, the first-generation Thunderbird had a lot to live up to, and live up, it did. Coming in two-door, two-seat form, it of course had a V8 up front and the most luxury features that were prevalent at the time. Today’s 1956 Ford Thunderbird has been fully restored and boasts under 9,000 miles to its name. Furthermore, this Delaware-based car comes with the Continental Kit as well.

Exterior and Interior

This 1956 Ford Thunderbird wears a new coat of Raven Black paint, and complements it with a new white convertible top for a sleek and quintessentially Fifties outlook, replete with ample chrome. The car also includes its removable hardtop, albeit not painted, we’re informed. Long, low, and rolling on whitewall tires, this car is a symbol of Fifties opulence and will make a fine addition to anyone’s garage. The two-seat interior of this 1956 Ford Thunderbird comes with a black and white leather-upholstered and power adjustable bench seat, an Art Deco-styled dashboard, and an AM push-button radio. Just cast your eyes over that elegant interior, with its period instruments and simplistic outlook and you can see why such cars were the very spirit of motoring. Pop the trunk and you’ll be greeted by a suitably spacious cargo compartment, replete with a proper spare wheel instead of the fiddly compressor and filler kit that today’s cars force on you.

Engine

This 1956 Ford Thunderbird enjoys a rebuilt 312ci V8, driving the rear wheels via an automatic gearbox. We’re told that the car comes with an additional radiator and cooling fan. So, it’s well-geared for some peaceful cruising across town, or even a jaunt on the highway.

1955 Ford Thunderbird

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$44,999
SOLD

Ford’s famous T-Bird was conceived in the Fifties, as an American Grand Tourer. But using that European designation wouldn’t do, so Ford created a segment name for it as well: Personal Luxury Car. Introduced in 1955 as a luxurious two-seater with V8 power under the hood, the first-generation T-Bird saw over 16,000 sold. This Torch Red 1955 Ford Thunderbird from Roseville, California is one such example. With its two-tone interior, 292ci V8 and 12-volt electrical system, this is a fine classic to drive around in. The car also comes with the detachable hardtop included in the sale, making it an all-weather, all-season classic if you please. We believe that the car may have received restoration, and bears just 1,700 miles since then.

With just under 28,000 miles on the clock, this V8-toting machine comes with the Light Sand Appearance Package, a removable body-colored hard top and even the original owner’s manual included with the sale.

Recent documented service reflects significant investment into the car’s mechanical systems, with major attention given to braking, fuel delivery, cooling, steering, and ignition components.
