1955 Ford Thunderbird

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$44,999
SOLD

Ford’s famous T-Bird was conceived in the Fifties, as an American Grand Tourer. But using that European designation wouldn’t do, so Ford created a segment name for it as well: Personal Luxury Car. Introduced in 1955 as a luxurious two-seater with V8 power under the hood, the first-generation T-Bird saw over 16,000 sold. This Torch Red 1955 Ford Thunderbird from Roseville, California is one such example. With its two-tone interior, 292ci V8 and 12-volt electrical system, this is a fine classic to drive around in. The car also comes with the detachable hardtop included in the sale, making it an all-weather, all-season classic if you please. We believe that the car may have received restoration, and bears just 1,700 miles since then.
