A segment creator of the Fifties, the Ford Thunderbird allowed Americans to taste what Europe's Grand Tourers were like. Two-door sports cars with enough space for touring luggage. It's no surprise, then, that eleven generations of the fondly-nicknamed T-Bird were produced. This included a special 50th Anniversary variant for the 2005 model year when the T-Bird bid adieu to the world. This 1956 Ford Thunderbird is an excellent way to experience the T-Bird lifestyle. This first-generation car boasts 87,000 miles on the clock, as well as a recent oil change and tune-up to keep it purring along. Bear in mind that only 15,631 units were produced in 1956, so you're joining a pretty exclusive club.
Painted in Thunderbird Green, this 1956 Ford Thunderbird is reminiscent of the bright pastel colors that the Fifties brought upon the automotive world. After all, the world had cast off the dark shades of the war and was moving into brighter and more promising territory. The current owner also tells us that the car wears its original wheels, wrapped with new tires. We also spot a contrasting tan convertible top that grants occupants a fabulous vista of the sky when desired, coupled with adequate weather protection when required. Inside, this 1956 Ford Thunderbird offers seating for two occupants on a brown and white leather bench seat, with the overall interior theme encompassing brown and body color. You've got the original set of Art Deco-inspired gauges, including the large central speedometer and smaller tachometer, plus auxiliary gauges. There's an original-style radio player installed in the dash adjacent to the heater controls. That's it, really. There's nothing else to distract you and your passenger from enjoying the drive.
This 1956 Ford Thunderbird features the optional "M" Code 292ci Y-block V8 that was introduced for the 1956 model year. A three-speed manual transmission with overdrive is present on this particular car, allowing you to enjoy a truly old-school, engaging driving experience. In its heyday, the Thunderbird was considered to be a car capable of exceeding 100mph, so you can expect sprightly performance from it when pushed. However, we'd recommend a more cruiser-esque driving style rather than trying to light up the rear tires, given the age and classic value of the car.
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.
Ford’s segment creator, the Thunderbird brought us the Personal Luxury Car in 1955. Ten generations of T-Bird were made until 1997, and an eleventh was sold from 2002 to 2005. Even today, the Thunderbird evokes strong recognition and remains a desirable classic car for many, especially those whose parents or grandparents owned a T-Bird back then. If you’re one of those people, we have this second-generation 1959 Ford Thunderbird Hardtop Coupe for sale in our inventory. Coming from Woodbine, Georgia, this 98,461-mile car packs a 352 under the hood, a two-tone interior and an automatic gearbox too. Call us if you’d like to own it.
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.
First generation Ford Mustangs are some of the most popular first-time classic cars around. Think we’re mistaken? Well, based on the amount of them that we’ve shifted, we beg to differ. With well over 2.5 million first-gen ‘Stangs created, there’s definitely no shortage of them around. You’ve got six or eight-cylinder power, three alluring body styles to pick from, and manual or automatic transmissions. So, choosing a first-generation Mustang is really down to your specific tastes and desires. Today’s example is a 1970 Ford Mustang Convertible from Portland, Oregon. It’s got a 302ci V8 under the hood, paired with a 3-speed SelectShift automatic gearbox, and also rocks an aftermarket radio. So do let us know if you’d like to own this sub-36,000 mile pony.
The Ford Model A of 1927 to 1931 was the follow-up to Ford’s famous Model T, that had revolutionized mobility across the world, as well as laid the foundations for many of the automotive industry’s assembly line and mass standardization practices. Many of those advances are still in use today. So, the Model A had a pretty lofty reputation to continue, and it admirably did so. Despite just five model years, over 4.8 million were made, across various body styles. The Model A also came with the standard pedal arrangement for manual transmission-equipped vehicles that we know today, unlike the Model T’s unconventional control layout. Today’s 1930 Ford Model A 5-Window Hot Rod is quite different from a regular Model T, though. Well, for starters it only has two pedals because this machine packs a 3-speed automatic gearbox. That’s not all, there’s a 350ci V8 under the hood, a custom paint job, and under 15,000 miles on the clock since this machine got an extensive do-over. If you’d like to acquire this funky hot rod, it’s currently sitting in Yorba Linda, California.
Ford’s Focus isn’t that popular in America. It’s more of a European hero in the compact car class, where roads are smaller, town centers are tighter and compact cars rule the roost. Here, the Focus would be considered almost too small for our larger-than-life tastes. But hang on, what about the hot variant of the Focus? Specifically, the RS? Now we’re talking, because this is a spicy turbocharged hot hatch with all-wheel drive and 350 horses to be delivered. In fact, the engine of the third generation Focus RS, which is where this 2016 Ford Focus RS for sale hails from, is directly derived from the EcoBoost unit in the sixth-generation Mustang! So if you’re interested, this 86,000-mile car is up for sale in Riverside, California. It’s a four-door, too, so family practicality is another of its strong selling points, in case you need to convince your significant other as to why this car should be in your garage or driveway.
In the late Sixties, Mercedes-Benz knew that it was time to replace their iconic W114 line-up of grand touring coupes. Development started on a successor, and by 1971, the R107 and C107 generation was released. It bore the name SL, and in the case of the R107, came with a removable hardtop plus a soft top. Meanwhile, the C107 was a fixed-head coupe. The R107 in particular would prove to be a massive success. In total, over 237,000 R107 variants were made between 1971 and 1989. Today, an R107 represents a sound and safe way to get into classic cars, as it’s built tough and can keep going on and on when properly maintained. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 184,122-mile 1972 Mercedes-Benz 450SL from Sandy, Utah for sale today. Its mileage is proof that not only is this a car that can eat up long distances, but it’s also one that encourages you to drive it more and more.
The first generation of Chevy’s popular Corvette sports car and grand tourer was revealed to the public in 1953. Called the C1, it ran until 1962, and sold just over 69,000 units. Today, finding a C1 is a little tough, but not impossible. You’ll find pristinely-kept, bone-stock examples, fixer-uppers, daily runners and restomods, like this Texas-based 1959 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod. This car packs a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated LT1 from a later Corvette, as well as aftermarket Z06-style wheels and a 4L60E 4-speed autobox. These, plus many other refinements make this a classic Corvette that you can daily drive with comfort and confidence.
