The 1956 Ford Thunderbird represents one of the most iconic American personal luxury cars of the 1950s, melding graceful styling with V8 power in a two-seat roadster format. This example presents beautifully in red with a matching red interior, exuding 1950s glamour and Americana. Under the hood, it retains its factory-correct 292ci V8 with the signature Thunderbird script valve covers and a Holley “Teapot” 4-barrel carburetor, delivering a smooth, refined driving experience through a Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission. This car is a rolling tribute to an era when design and simplicity defined American excellence.
This 1956 Ford Thunderbird wears a nice red suit and caps it off with two tops. We’re told that the car needs a new soft top, but the original hard top in white is included, replete with those distinctive porthole windows. You see, Ford envisioned the first-generation T-Bird as a roadster, but smartly included a hard top as well, so that the car could be used even in the harshest of winters or most scorching summers. Overall, this car looks great with its whitewall tires, chrome bumpers, externally mounted ‘Continental’ style spare wheel and overall period fittings. The interior of this 1956 Ford Thunderbird comes in red and white vinyl material. The first generation T-Bird was a two-seater before Ford decided to introduce a rear seat for subsequent generations. That’s what you’ll find here, with a comfortably upholstered bench seat, and a period dashboard. The steering wheel is a black unit, but we see that a matching red unit is also included in the trunk, so the choice is up to you. Speaking of the trunk, its suitably roomy for a car intended to be driven over great distances, basically go Grand Touring.
Power comes from a 292 cubic-inch Y-block V8 engine, equipped with a factory Holley 4000 “Teapot” 4-barrel carburetor for balanced performance and reliability. The engine breathes through cast iron exhaust manifolds and routes power to the rear wheels via a Ford-O-Matic 3-speed automatic transmission. The engine bay maintains its authentic look, with proper valve covers, air cleaner, and vintage wiring layout. This setup was good for about 200 hp when new, delivering smooth torque for effortless cruising—a true testament to mid-century American engineering.

Ford’s contribution to American motoring history in the luxury segment, the Thunderbird came in 1955 and created the Personal Luxury Car segment. The idea was to replicate what was called the Grand Tourer in Europe. After all, the United States was gaining some fine interstates, crisscrossing the land and connecting East and West. There was stunning scenery, interesting culture and culinary delights to be explored. All the well-heeled needed was a suitable car to connect them all with. That’s where the Personal Luxury Car came in. The Thunderbird ran from 1955 to 1997 across ten generations, then a homage eleventh generation was made between 2002 and 2005. Today’s 1989 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe is from the tenth generation and resides in Delray Beach, Florida. It’s got just 10,500 miles on its wheels, and a supercharged engine under its hood! Join us as we tell you more, and if you’d like to own this car, we’re ready to help.
Known as the creator of the Personal Luxury Car segment, Ford’s Thunderbird drew inspiration from Europe’s grand tourers—machines built for comfort, elegance, and long-distance cruising. Ford ultimately produced eleven generations of the T-Bird, evolving from its original two-seat layout to a more versatile four-seat design that broadened its appeal. This 1960 Ford Thunderbird is a standout second-generation example currently offered in Aptos, California. With only 12,510 miles since its full restoration, this car presents as a well-preserved and thoughtfully updated classic. Upgrades such as a front disc brake conversion and electric windshield wipers enhance drivability while maintaining its vintage charm. The sale also includes a car cover and a reprinted original owner’s manual, making it an inviting opportunity to own and enjoy a piece of American automotive history.
This 1966 Ford F-250 Crown Crew Cab 4×4 is a rare example of a purpose-built heavy-duty truck ordered with both specialized coachwork and Ford’s upscale Custom Cab specification. Unlike the standard fleet-grade bodies typically used for Crown conversions, this truck was built on a F-250 platform and equipped from new with the 81B Custom Cab package, pairing a four-door Crown-built body with Ford’s highest interior trim of the period. A comprehensive, factory-correct restoration was carried out with the singular goal of returning the truck precisely to its original 1966 configuration rather than modernizing or reinterpreting it. The combination of Custom Cab trim, Crown coachwork, faithfully recreated upholstery materials, and original-style factory air conditioning places this truck among the most authentic Crown crew cab F-250s known, supported by Hemmings documentation and minimal mileage since completion.
In 2005, Ford revealed the all-new fifth generation Mustang to the public. This was a significant moment, because the fourth generation was really old in the tooth. It would sit on a totally new platform, and have styling that harked back to the original first-generation as well. The fifth generation also marked the return of the Shelby Mustang. This fine association was prevalent in the first generation, when Carroll Shelby’s outfit tuned Mustangs to become thoroughbred racehorses! In 2007, the Shelby GT500 for the fifth generation was released, and we have an under 10,000-mile example for sale now. This car comes with the original window sticker too, making it a definite must-have for the discerning collector, or someone who wants a relatively rare Mustang to enjoy.

This particular example packs the popular 289ci V8 under the hood, and comes with a manual transmission. It’s also got factory air conditioning!

The prancing horse, or better yet known as Ferrari, has long been the purveyor of a car ownership experience that's unlike any out there. From its bedroom wall poster to clocking in rapid lap times worldwide, the Italian manufacturer is a true legend in the automotive world. While taking ownership of a Ferrari is a milestone in anyone's life, it does come with a tax - the actual cost of owning one and allowing it to clock in the miles and provide you with a good time on every drive out. Breaking through the matrix that is Ferrari ownership is otherworldly, but worry not: there is always a solution. Present today is this 1986 Ferrari Mondial Quattrovalvole. With a reported 24,000 miles on its clock, this is the answer to all your prancing horse problems and has always been labeled as a "usable" Ferrari.
Pontiac has always been a somewhat performance-oriented brand, even in dark times like the Malaise Era. Their Firebird muscle/pony car was severely strangled due to this dark time, but Pontiac cheerfully changed direction. Of course they kept the Firebird, but introduced something else too. This was the Fiero, made between 1984 and 1988. Unlike most other Pontiacs, the Fiero was a compact two-door sports car with a mid-mounted engine, composite body panels and an economical outlook. In subsequent times, Fieros found an unlikely purpose as the base of many faux Ferrari transformations. Thankfully, stock examples do remain, like this West Palm Beach-located 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT. It’s up for sale with under 69,000 miles on the clock, a 2.8-liter V6 in the rear, and an automatic gearbox. Contact us if you’d like to make it your own.
