Ford’s Thunderbird kicked off the segment known as the personal luxury car when it entered the market in October 1954. Ten generations were produced from 1955 to 1997, and the eleventh generation entered the market in 2001 as a retro homage, and ran for four years. The Thunderbird name is a reference to the mythical legendary creature in North American indigenous history. If you are looking to own a Thunderbird, or T-Bird as they are affectionately called, here’s a nice 1956 Ford Thunderbird Roadster Continental Package to consider. It’s coming from California with 77,770 miles on the clock, and has the original invoice and owner’s manual thrown in with the sale. Only 15,631 units were produced in 1956, adding to this car’s desirability.
The first-generation Thunderbird went from idea to prototype in approximately one year. It shares styling cues with Fifties Fords, but is longer, lower, and sleeker to reflect its luxurious ethos. This 1956 Ford Thunderbird Roadster Continental Package wears a proud Colonial White paintwork and has the aforementioned Continental Package which includes the rear-mounted spare wheel that increases trunk space. The current owner reports that the soft top was new when he purchased the car, and the hard top is included with the sale too. Wheels with chromed Ford hubcaps and whitewall tires complete the classy outlook. The interior is in Peacock Blue and seats two occupants. This T-Bird has power windows, power steering and power seats and a modern radio with CD installed. The original factory radio is included with the sale should the buyer prefer it. The three-spoke chrome-ringed steering wheel is also in Peacock Blue, and a tachometer sits to the left of the speedometer, whilst the corresponding space on the right is taken up by the clock.
The first-generation Thunderbird had two V8 options and this 1956 Ford Thunderbird Roadster Continental Package is packing the larger 312ci (5.1L) Y-block V8 which drives the rear wheels through a three speed manual transmission with overdrive. This car is reported to sport a numbers-matching engine and transmission. The engine is said to have put out around 210hp, which was enough for a top speed in excess of 100mph.

The '50s was surely iconic. The cars, the music and the vibes were ones never to be relieved. Looking to experience or relive the magical time? Present today is this 1957 Ford Thunderbird. It's a '50s classic that ensures an original driving experience and looks that make you turn back as you park.
Ford’s T-Bird brought Americans a slice of the European Grand Tourer lifestyle. These luxury cars were initially two seaters with powerful engines and the best luxury and technological features of their time. They were designed to be owned and driven by the wealthy, and capable of crossing the country while imparting the least fatigue upon their occupants. If you’ve always had a soft spot for a T-Bird, this first-generation 1957 Ford Thunderbird is a fine catch. Coming to you with under 35,000 miles on the clock, we’re told that this car is just 1 of 68 produced in the beautiful color that you see in these photos. That fact, plus its original mileage and up-to-date servicing make it a fine classic car that’s a shrewd investment too.
The first-generation Thunderbird was introduced in 1954 as Ford’s answer to the Chevy Corvette that came out the year before. To call it a direct competitor of the Vette would, however, be inaccurate. While the Corvette was a small and lightweight 2-seater with a fiberglass body (to compete with European sports cars), the T-Bird was more of a 2-seater personal luxury car for a younger demographic of buyers (being smaller and lighter than most Detroit products at the time). In fact, in its first production year, it outsold the Corvette by a massive margin. In total, over 53,000 first-generation Thunderbirds were made in 3 years of production, with 1957 being the most successful year.
Ford's fourth iteration of the iconic pony car is the SN95 Mustang. It was manufactured from 1994 to 2004 and sometimes goes by the name Fox-4 Mustang. S stands for small, specialty vehicle, N stands for North American Operations, and 95 is the sequence number of approved vehicle projects. Ford engineers and designers completely restyled both the interior and exterior of the Mustang for the fourth generation. Enthusiasts who have owned them for years love them for how reliable and easy to work on they are. So purchasing this 1995 Ford Mustang Restomod will definitely bring power and cheer into your life. This beastly machine is track-ready and waits in California to become your track-day darling.
This 2017 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R with just under 11,000 Miles on the odometer is a perfect example of the company's ingenuity. Rear wheel drive, a manual transmission, and a big fat V8 up front. Ford has been producing the Mustang for 60 years, so you’d think their formula is working rather well.
Ford’s Mustang has always been a playful sort of car, targeted at those who want to have fun. After all, it’s what created the whole pony car segment. But what if a Mustang could truly be hotted up? This is what epic racer, tuner and red-blooded American Carroll Shelby pondered. Well, the man was known for putting his thoughts into actions and the rest, as they say, is history. Even today, Ford offers a Shelby variant of its Mustang. Shelby Mustangs are known for being drag strip demons or ferocious track tools. If you want a relatively modern Shelby Mustang but aren’t willing to wait in queues, we’ve got this 2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 locked and loaded for you to buy right now. With a mere 1,196 miles on the odometer, it’s basically a brand-new car.
