The 1957 Ford Thunderbird was an icon the moment it left its factory floors; it had iconic '50s styling that was jaw-dropping, the luxury that most '50s American motors are renowned for, and performance that was supposed to take on the first-generation Chevrolet Corvette. Present today is not just any first-generation Ford Thunderbird, but this sought-after 1957 Ford Thunderbird E-Code. Built to turn heads as you drive by, this 50s icon can be your weekend cruiser that's best enjoyed with its top-down and picturesque back road.
The black exterior on this 1957 Ford Thunderbird E-Code highlights the design work and is bound to turn heads as you drive by. The exterior of this '50s classic is in excellent shape, and that's thanks to a new paint job and refurbished chrome parts, as reported by the current owner; also reported is that the soft top and hard top are included in the sale. The sleek and smooth styling transitions into a set of wire wheels, which are reported to be new by the current owner and wrapped with fresh whitewall tires. The first-generation Ford Thunderbird sported one of the most iconic cabins of all time. It was the poster child of 1950s interior dashboard design and is perfectly showcased with this 1957 Ford Thunderbird E-Code and its white interior. The current owner reports that the interior has been reupholstered, and it looks like it just rolled off the factory floor in 1950. Every interior component is present and in excellent shape.
Pop open the hood of this 1957 Ford Thunderbird E-Code, and you will find a 312ci V8 motor that sports dual Holley four-barrel carburetors and other neat features to make it stand out. This high performance engine option is denoted by the ‘E’ Engine code in the Thunderbird family and gives you top of the line power output that rivaled the Corvette of its era. The current owner reports some refreshments in terms of performance to ensure more time behind the wheel; maintenance on this classic American cruiser includes a recent oil change for refined performance and a recent tune-up to ensure everything works as it should. In terms of power delivery, this '50s classic channels all its performance to its rear wheels through a Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission.

The Ford Thunderbird was made between 1955 and 1997 across ten generations, and redefined the Personal Luxury Car for Americans. In fact, it created the segment, largely inspired by the Grand Tourers of Europe. So, in the 2000s, Ford was feeling a little misty eyed and decided to create a rose-tinted eleventh generation homage to this iconic nameplate. Enter the retro-modern Thunderbird that was made between 2002 and 2005. Styled by Jack Telnack, the car sat on the Ford DEW98 platform, used an engine from Jaguar (who Ford owned at the time), and marked a return to roots of sorts, in that it was a two-seater, just like the first generation. Over 68,000 examples were made, and we have one for sale. Say hello to this original owner, all-stock 2002 Ford Thunderbird from South Jordan, Utah, that’s got just 13,085 miles on the clock.
The 1956 Ford Thunderbird represents one of the most iconic American personal luxury cars of the 1950s, melding graceful styling with V8 power in a two-seat roadster format. This example presents beautifully in red with a matching red interior, exuding 1950s glamour and Americana. Under the hood, it retains its factory-correct 292ci V8 with the signature Thunderbird script valve covers and a Holley “Teapot” 4-barrel carburetor, delivering a smooth, refined driving experience through a Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission. This car is a rolling tribute to an era when design and simplicity defined American excellence.
Ford’s contribution to American motoring history in the luxury segment, the Thunderbird came in 1955 and created the Personal Luxury Car segment. The idea was to replicate what was called the Grand Tourer in Europe. After all, the United States was gaining some fine interstates, crisscrossing the land and connecting East and West. There was stunning scenery, interesting culture and culinary delights to be explored. All the well-heeled needed was a suitable car to connect them all with. That’s where the Personal Luxury Car came in. The Thunderbird ran from 1955 to 1997 across ten generations, then a homage eleventh generation was made between 2002 and 2005. Today’s 1989 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe is from the tenth generation and resides in Delray Beach, Florida. It’s got just 10,500 miles on its wheels, and a supercharged engine under its hood! Join us as we tell you more, and if you’d like to own this car, we’re ready to help.

The famous Ford F-Series was born in 1948, as America was emerging into a post-war world of promise and prosperity. Now in the fourteenth generation, the F-Series has got to be the world’s longest-running truck series, if not one of the longest. Today, the F-150 is the most popular variant as the half-tonner, but if we look at the first generation, the range simply started with the F-1 as the half-ton variant. That’s what we have here, a 1950 Ford F-1 Restomod from Groveport, Ohio. It’s received a thorough makeover with a 350ci V8 under the hood, an automatic gearbox, a converted 12-volt electrical system and more. If you want to own a classic Ford truck that you can actually enjoy driving, this 78,000-mile machine is your best option.
If you want a classic pony car that’s plentiful, easy to maintain and cuts a fine dash wherever you take it, choose a first-generation Ford Mustang. Produced between 1964 and 1973, a couple of million were made, basically. Three body styles were available, and did you know that the famous fastback was officially called the SportsRoof? Yes, that’s what we have for sale today, a rather unique 1969 Ford Mustang Restomod for sale from Royse City, Texas. It’s got a 5.2-liter Coyote Aluminator V8 under the hood, hooked up to a five-speed Tremec box and a Currie rear end. Yes, this pony has received a significant shot in the arm, or several. With just 155 miles since its makeover, it’s now ready for a new owner.
In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower. This Washington-based car also comes with its original interior, as well as original Corvette wheels. If you want a special classic Corvette that’s definitely going to be valuable for years to come, talk to us right now.
