Have you heard about the ‘personal luxury car’ category? The Ford Thunderbird is the model responsible for creating it. Produced from 1955 to 1997 over ten generations, with an eleventh generation running from 2002 to 2005, the Thunderbird, fondly known as the T-Bird focused on driver comforts and luxuries, rather than outright speed. Nevertheless, it would pack a V8 under the hood. This is a 1956 Ford Thunderbird Convertible from the first generation. Coming from Colorado, this example is reported to have undergone a professional minter restoration with only 49 test miles since then. It’s also reported to have won the Classic Thunderbird Club International Senior Gold Medallion Show. It’s said that this car was sold new in Los Angeles.
1956 saw the Thunderbird gain more trunk space which was partially a result of moving the spare wheel to the rear fender Continental style. This 1956 Ford Thunderbird Convertible wears a lovely Buck Skin Tan paint job and rolls on reportedly new, real wire Thunderbird wheels. It comes with both tops; the porthole hardtop is also in Buck Skin Tan whilst soft top is in chocolate brown with Haartz cloth. The interior features an inviting Milk Chocolate Brown and White color scheme and sports seating for two on a bench seat. It appears to be in stunning condition just like the exterior. It’s also got the 1956 Town and Country radio installed in the dash, as well as the little tachometer to the left of the large speedo. The odometer shows the correct post-restoration mileage too. All chrome bits gleam, and makes this car look factory fresh.
The Thunderbird was offered with a very American V8 gasoline powerplant, and the first generation had either 292ci (4.8L) or 312ci (5.1L) options. This 1956 Ford Thunderbird Convertible bears the larger engine, the 312ci V8 which is rated for an unstressed 225hp. It sends the power to the rear wheels via a Ford-O-Matic three speed automatic transmission. Power steering and Ford Swiftsure power brakes are present too, showing that this car is a suave cruiser rather than brash bruiser.

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.
