The Fifties brought in so much development in the line of automotive designs. This is the era that spawned the Hudson Hornet, Chevy Bel-Air, Cadillac Coupe deVille and of course the Ford Thunderbird. The Thunderbird was Ford’s answer to the Chevrolet Bel-Air, a top-of-the-line personal luxury car. The Thunderbird, or more commonly known as the T-Bird was produced in 11 distinctive generations. Our subject vehicle hails from the third generation of the illustrious line, this 1963 Ford Thunderbird convertible is a car that will stand out anywhere. It is available in New Jersey and comes with just 500 miles after the restoration.
Bedecked in a glorious Corinthian White, this 1963 Ford Thunderbird Convertible exudes elegance and charm. It sits on a set of new vintage-style Cragar Chrome Smoothie wheels along with new Coker 1” striped white walled tires. Assuring a smooth ride is the rebuilt suspension. The interior is done in a tasteful red leather with trim wherever you lay your eyes on. This car has been restored with such a considerable number of new parts, that it might as well be new from the factory. It comes with a white convertible top and rare color matched Sports Roadster fiberglass tonneau cover. Standard and functioning options include power steering, power brakes, power roof, power windows and power drivers’ seat. The T-Bird’s elegant steering wheel is a 3-spoke chrome and red affair, with swing away feature, and new fuel and temperature gauges. The air conditioning has been replaced as well with one from Classic Auto Air. Factory fitted fender skirts are in place along with the dual side mirrors. The rear deck convertible pistons have been newly replaced for added reliability and peace of mind.
This 1963 Ford Thunderbird convertible came with a 390 cu (6.4L) V8 engine, mated to a 3-speed Cruise-O-Matic MC automatic transmission, both of which have been newly rebuilt to perfection. Internal upgrades include new factory air filter and valve covers and a new Holly carb. Keeping the car at optimum temperature is a new radiator along with a new temperature-controlled radiator fan, new coolant and a new water pump. A new coolant tank and new engine decals were also added.
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.
