This 1957 Ford Thunderbird is powered by the desirable 312ci Y-block naturally aspirated V8 paired with a 3-speed Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission. Finished in black over a white vinyl interior with a gray convertible soft top, it also includes the removable hard top — a defining feature of the final-year first-generation Thunderbird. Recent documented service reflects significant investment into the car’s mechanical systems, with major attention given to braking, fuel delivery, cooling, steering, and ignition components. This is not simply cosmetic upkeep — it is substantive mechanical sorting aimed at drivability and reliability.
Finished in black, this 1957 Ford Thunderbird presents with a bold, elegant presence that perfectly suits the final and most refined year of the first-generation “Baby Bird.” The deep black paint accentuates the car’s signature wide grille, sculpted front fenders, subtle tail fins, and chrome detailing. The proportions of the ’57 model — slightly longer and wider than prior years — give it a more confident and balanced stance. With both the gray convertible soft top and the removable hard top included, the car offers two distinct personalities: open-air cruiser or refined personal luxury coupe. Inside, the white vinyl interior delivers classic 1950s styling with bright, period-correct contrast against the exterior. The wraparound dash design, chrome trim, and aircraft-inspired instrumentation create a cockpit-like feel unique to early Thunderbirds. The seating position is low and driver-focused, reinforcing the Thunderbird’s identity as a personal sport-luxury car rather than a traditional full-size convertible. The cabin maintains its vintage character while benefiting from subtle functional updates, allowing it to retain authenticity without sacrificing usability.
Mechanically, this Thunderbird has received extensive recent service. The brake system was comprehensively refreshed, including master cylinder, all four wheel cylinders, brake shoes and hardware, and full brake line replacement — a critical safety restoration. The fuel system was overhauled and converted to an electric fuel pump with regulator, the fuel tank was cleaned, and the carburetor leak was repaired and adjusted to correct rich running. The ignition system was refreshed with new points, condenser, and spark plugs. Cooling system updates include a replacement water pump and thermostat housing. The steering control valve was replaced, the rear differential serviced, and the front wheel bearings inspected, repacked, and resealed. Replaced alternator and power steering belts were also installed. Collectively, these repairs represent substantial mechanical investment and significantly enhance the car’s usability.

In 2002, Ford introduced the eleventh generation Thunderbird, as a retro-modern homage to the original. It brought back many first-generation attributes such as the two-seat layout, but featured modern mechanicals and technology under the skin. Since Ford owned British automaker Jaguar Cars at the time, there are quite a few Jaguar-derived bits in eleventh generation T-Birds too. This 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe is one fine example that’s currently up for grabs in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. With under 17,000 miles on the clock, the Full Interior Color Accent Package and the Deluxe Series Order Code, this is a car for the discerning collector indeed.
A key automobile in America’s automotive industry, the T-Bird as it is popularly called was billed as a Personal Luxury Car. This was a segment that Ford supposedly created, reflecting a luxury and powerful two-door machine. Basically, they looked at the Grand Tourers of Europe and said, hey, America has open roads that would suit such a segment of car. Ten generations of T-Bird were made between 1955 and 1997, with a homage eleventh generation showing its face between 2002 and 2005. Today’s 1961 Ford Thunderbird comes from the third generation and has done just 22,000 miles. Based in Kansas City, it’s got a V8, a 3-speed Cruise-O-Matic automatic gearbox, a black interior and more.
Mach 1 is the speed of sound. Yes, it’s around seven hundred and sixty miles an hour at sea level. Needless to say, this 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 can’t get anywhere near that figure, but it’s a cool name, nonetheless. So cool, especially in the golden era of jet aircraft – the Sixties and Seventies. That’s why when Ford introduced a top-tier performance and appearance package for the first-generation Mustang, they called it the Mach 1. Hence, if you find an original Mach 1 for sale today, it’s an increasingly rare bird to net. Thankfully, we’re great ‘birdwatchers’ when it comes to finding rare automotive birds. So, we’ve got this 37,058-mile car from Winchester in our net right now. Quick, come and get it before someone else does!

This 2017 Ford Mustang Shelby Super Snake represents one of the most aggressive factory-authorized Shelby builds of the modern S550 era. Finished in Shadow Black and equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission, this example combines the raw engagement of a traditional manual gearbox with Shelby’s 750+ horsepower supercharged performance package. Based on the Mustang GT Premium, the Super Snake conversion elevates the car into a limited-production, Shelby Registry–numbered performance machine with extensive mechanical, cooling, braking, and aerodynamic upgrades. With an original total MSRP approaching six figures, this car delivers supercar-level straight-line performance while retaining daily drivability and full Shelby documentation.
This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Restomod is a no-expense-spared Pro Touring build that blends iconic first-generation Camaro styling with thoroughly modern performance engineering. Under the hood sits a 376ci LS3 V8 upgraded with a COMP cam and valvetrain, producing a claimed 530 horsepower, paired to a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission for an engaging, driver-focused experience. Built with premium components throughout — including a Heidts Pro-G IRS rear suspension and Detroit Speed front subframe — this Camaro was clearly constructed with both performance and refinement in mind. Showing under 2,500 miles since completion, it remains exceptionally fresh, presenting as a highly sorted and lightly driven example of a serious modern muscle build.
The Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme was one of the best-selling nameplates in America during the 1970s and 1980s, and by 1984 the Brougham trim represented the pinnacle of personal luxury in the lineup. This 1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Brougham, showing 83,404 miles, captures that era perfectly with its unmistakable blend of comfort, chrome, and V8 power. Built during a time when personal coupes ruled American roads, the Cutlass Supreme offered buyers a refined alternative to sportier muscle cars, emphasizing smooth cruising, upscale appointments, and distinctive styling. With its classic proportions and well-preserved presentation, this example stands as an authentic representation of mid-1980s American luxury.
Today’s car on sale is the breathtakingly beautiful Opel GT. It’s a compact German sports car that’s quite unlike the contemporary American cars that ruled the Sixties and Seventies. With its steel unibody chassis and rotary flipping headlamps, the GT was powered by a 1.9-liter four-cylinder unit. This particular 1972 Opel GT has got just 4,200 miles on it and is up for grabs in Covington, Kentucky. It embodies the quirky nature of Opel’s cars back then, and is a fantastic choice to make if you want to be known for distinctiveness, especially when you rock up at a classic car meet or drive event.
