When it comes to cars that represent their era, very few match up to the likes of the iconic Ford Thunderbird and the 50s; with post-war production being ramped up, the Thunderbird was not just another American luxury offering but one that stood out no matter where you are or the occasion. This fine example of a 50s legend we have today comes in the form of this lovely 1957 Ford Thunderbird, which is reported to be sold by its original owner/family. With a reported 53,000 miles on the clock, this classic American beauty has seen some refreshing over the years to make it functioning automotive art and yours to enjoy.
What makes the Thunderbird hot property among collectors to this day is its signature 50s styling that isn't over the top like many cars of the time; the Thunderbird's styling was just right. The black exterior with a white convertible top on this 1957 Ford Thunderbird suits its elegant yet toned-down styling well. The current owner reports that a retractable hardtop with a porthole and a new white soft top is currently on the car. The body and paint are in excellent condition, with the current owner reporting a repaint done back in 2010; even all the chrome exterior components are in place, including chrome driver's mirror, fender skirts, and side wind deflectors reported by the current owner. This 50s beauty sits on its original hubcaps and wears a set of thick whitewall tires. Originality seems to be this car's personality trait, and the black and white interior of this 1957 Ford Thunderbird speaks volumes. The interior is reported to be factory by the current owner and even sports a white leather bench seat for that added 50s effect.
In keeping with its originality, even the 312ci V8 powertrain under the hood of this 1957 Ford Thunderbird is claimed to be original by the current owner. And yes, even the automatic transmission sending power to this car's rear wheels is also original. The vehicle is reported to have never been rebuilt but refreshed to keep things as near ex-factory as possible.
In the ʼ00s, Ford decided to honor its timeless Thunderbird personal luxury car with a retro-modern eleventh generation. Produced for just three short years, this eleventh-generation T-Bird saw over 60,000 units made. Heavily inspired by the first generation from the 1950s, this new T-Bird sat on a modern platform, and used a V8 from Jaguar, of all places. Today, we’ve got a 2003 Ford Thunderbird for those who are intrigued by this pastiche of ʼ50s styling and ʼ00s mechanicals and creature comforts. The car has done only 8,312 miles, making it a real rare find, and a definitive future classic.
In 1955, the Ford Thunderbird entered the American luxury car market and shook it up. Aimed at bringing Americans a taste of the European Grand Touring experience, the Thunderbird was called the Personal Luxury Car. It was a powerful two-seater with a suitably spacious trunk and all the creature comforts of the day. Aimed at covering hundreds of miles with ease, the T-Bird quickly became a cult classic. Ford made ten generations until 1997, but they had a brief change of heart in 2002. Hence, a retro-modern eleventh generation was released, and made until 2005. Just 60,000 were sold, making this generation relatively rare in comparison with the early ones from the Fifties and Sixties. So, if you’ve wanted to try out one of these curios, check out this 4,475-mile 2002 Ford Thunderbird that’s for sale right now with us.
Ford’s Thunderbird is responsible for creating the Personal Luxury Car segment in the United States, a segment that the famous, wealthy and powerful flocked to like moths to a flame in the fifties through eighties. Personal Luxury Cars were modeled on Europe’s Grand Tourers, aimed at providing smooth, swift and serene transportation across great distances while offering all the luxury niceties and creature comforts that were cutting-edge at the time. Introduced in 1955, the first-gen Thunderbird would run for a mere three model years before the second generation came about. With a mere 53,166 made, it’s not so easy to find a great example these days. However, we at Exotic Car Trader have developed somewhat of a knack for finding and offering great examples of iconic cars. This 1957 Ford Thunderbird is no exception. We’re told that the car was fully restored around 15 years ago, which explains why it still looks in great order.
Ford’s longest-running series to date, the F-Series entered production in 1948, and revolutionized small businesses across America. Here was a sturdy, capable and reliable pickup truck that came in capacities of ½ ton upwards. It offered a great way to transport your goods to market, bring back raw materials, and carry your family as well. Now we’re on the fourteenth generation of the F-Series, and there have been many greats along the way. This 2008 Ford F-150 Harley Davidson comes from the eleventh generation and is the result of a collaboration between Ford and Harley Davidson. This special edition was offered for the tenth generation as well. Furthermore, this truck comes with the Saleen supercharger package, making it one heck of a ride to own and drive.
Ford’s Mustang continues to be a runaway sales hit over sixty years later. The starter of the pony car category, the Mustang could be had as a lovely open-topped cruiser, or a potent V8-packing muscle car scarer. One of the more performance-oriented derivatives was the Mach 1. As you may imagine, this was peak Jet Age era, and supersonic travel was an intriguing concept. While your road-going Mustang Mach 1 certainly couldn’t touch the speed of sound or get anywhere near it, it sure was a nice tag to have. Furthermore, the Mach 1 came with a host of cosmetic and performance enhancements. If you’re interested in owning a first-generation Mach 1, here’s a 112,334-mile 1972 Ford Mustang Mach 1 up for sale. The car has received recent servicing as well.

Do you want a muscle car experience in a compact car body? That’s what Plymouth aimed to provide, with the Duster. Made between 1969 and 1976, the Duster was their two-door coupe in the compact car segment. However, Plymouth still endowed it with V8s of varying capacities, ensuring that buyers didn’t get the typically pedestrian performance that came with compact cars. If you’re interested in getting your hands on a Duster, check out this 1970 Plymouth Duster Restomod that’s for sale right now. The car has been completely restored and rocks some neat modern features.

Named after the graceful African antelope, the Chevy Impala has been a full-size and midsize nameplate in the Bowtie’s hierarchy for years. It’s been intermittently seen between 1957 and 2020. Perhaps the Impala’s greatest claim to fame is its prominence in the hit TV series Supernatural as the car of choice for the Winchester Brothers. That car was, in fact, a 1967 Impala, but a hardtop. Meanwhile, this car is a 1967 Chevrolet Impala SS Convertible, with all information as reported by the current owner. We’re told that it’s got plenty of upgrades and enhancements, so let’s learn more.
