Set out to be "a personal car of distinction," the Ford Thunderbird was the company's response to the Corvette. Although not a direct competitor, the vehicles had a lot of similarities. Both had powerful V8 engines strapped onto them, both were two-seaters, and both delivered plenty of power to the wheels on command. But the Thunderbird was more catered to the class of driver who appreciates more comfort and luxury for the accomplished enthusiast. This 1957 Ford Thunderbird is for the enthusiast. It is a gorgeous specimen that has survived the test of time with a little elbow grease, including a rebuilt engine, which the current owner reports to be rebuilt with the same block. With some redone interiors and tops and a coat of paint that the current owner believes to have been done by the previous owner, this particular vehicle is in excellent condition.
A blast from the past, this 1957 Ford Thunderbird casts an iconic silhouette that few cars can match, and the white and red paint job fits the car perfectly. The low-sitting, wide-body set the car in a sporty stance, making a hint at the true power hidden under the hood. Some Ford and Thunderbird branding adorn the vehicle, which follows a design language that, although it isn't as avant-garde as the first Corvette, has a sense of elegance and sophistication that appeals to the more sophisticated enthusiast. Stepping away from the redone white hardtop and climbing inside, you'll find that the white accents continue, now the red being replaced by black. The redone interior remains faithful to what it appeared as when leaving the factory, and this involves sacrificing some modern comforts such as air conditioning and power steering.
This 1957 Thunderbird sports a 312ci massive V8 that delivers power to the rear wheels using an automatic transmission. The rebuilt engine, which the current owner reports to have been done with the same block, helps retain the car's authenticity and breathes a new lease on life to the all-American V8 under the hood. A turn of the key turns on the engine as it roars to life, just as it was made for, delivering speed without compromising on comfort, turning heads all the way.
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.
The Chevrolet Impala has played the role of the Bowtie’s flagship full-size car for years. Produced over ten generations, the Impala was first introduced in 1957. Named after the eponymous African antelope, the first generation was strictly a two-door affair. Buyers could choose a coupe or convertible. If you’d like to own a classic Impala but with a bit more pep up and go, this 1958 Chevrolet Impala is a worthy contender. The car comes with an upgraded engine, but remains otherwise stock as far as possible. That makes it a lovely classic car to own and drive, but something to surprise other classics with when the mood strikes.
What on Earth is this thing? If you haven’t heard of the Meyers Manx, we don’t blame you. This curio is based on a shortened VW Beetle chassis, and was initially designed for desert racing. The product of Californian surfer Bruce F. Meyers, the Manx does indeed look like a Beetle if you squint. This particular 1962 Meyers Manx is up for sale with a mere 35,000 miles on the clock. So, if you want something quirky and playful, give us a call.
Chevy’s Camaro and its stablemate, the Pontiac Firebird were introduced in 1967 as GM’s pony car duo. Not content to let Ford have all the fun, the General was firing on all cylinders. The Camaro and Firebird were colossal successes, and a mere three years later, the second generation debuted for eager American petrolheads to enjoy. This generation would run until 1981 and was a totally new design. If you’re a fan of the second-generation Camaro, check out this 1981 Chevrolet Camaro Berlinetta, which is up for grabs. The current owner says that they purchased this car new, and it’s an all-original one. Having a healthy 236,000 miles on the odometer, the car is ready for a new owner and fresh adventures.
