Ford’s Thunderbird was a trailblazer in the ʼ50s and '60s. Envisioned to bring Americans a slice of that luxury grand touring lifestyle that Europeans were enjoying, the T-Bird as it was affectionately called, started life as a two-seater. Over time, it gained a rear seat as well, since Ford realized that some people liked to take their children along too, plus a rear seat meant that the car was better suited to regular family life. Ten generations of T-Bird graced our roads between 1955 and 1997. In 2002, Ford decided to create a homage, and the eleventh generation was made. This 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe is one of those cars, and with just 31,368 units made for 2002, you’re part of a pretty exclusive club now. You see, the eleventh generation is poised to become a future classic, so this 28,475-mile car is a savvy investment too.
The sleek white coat worn by this 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe really showcases its retro-modern design, as Ford wanted to incorporate some cues of the first-generation T-Bird as well. The car comes with a black power-operated convertible top, shiny silver alloy wheels, and a retro-styled front grille. Its head and taillamp clusters are also designed to hark back to contemporary ʼ50s and ʼ60s designs, albeit with modern technology. You’ve also got new tires on this car. The interior of this 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe goes back to the marque’s roots, in that it’s a two-seater. Furthermore, it offers amenities such as automatic climate control, power locks, power windows and power mirrors. You’ve also got a radio with in-dash 6-CD changer, and even cruise control. Behind the passenger compartment lies a fairly accommodating trunk too.
This 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe packs a 3.9-liter V8 engine under the hood, good for a factory-rated 252hp and 267lb-ft of torque. Interestingly, the engine is a Jaguar unit, because Ford owned Jaguar at the time. However, the gearbox is a Ford Bordeaux 5-speed automatic unit, and sends drive to the rear wheels in true grand tourer fashion. You’ve also got power disc brakes and power steering. Furthermore, this car has received a new battery.

With a name like Thunderbird, it’s hard to not get your pulse racing with anticipation. But hang on, Ford’s Thunderbird isn’t a screaming race machine. On the contrary, it’s America’s take on the Grand Tourers of Europe, and called a Personal Luxury Car. Introduced in 1955, the first generation Thunderbird was a strict two-seater and aimed to offer a value proposition of no-compromise comfort cruising across long distances. It’s a majestic thing, and you’ll see why as soon as you cast eyes on this first-generation 1956 Ford Thunderbird from Fairview, Texas. This 24,715-mile machine is fresh from a recent tune-up and sports a rebuilt engine and gearbox for longevity. Let us tell you why you should buy it without a second thought.
An American classic, the weekend and no plans ahead. Sound like the perfect day?

Present today is this lovely 1955 Ford Thunderbird.

With a name like Thunderbird, you’d expect the automobile in question to be quite spectacular, and Ford didn’t disappoint. Conceived in the ʼ50s and debuting for the 1955 model year, the Thunderbird was modeled on the Grand Tourer segment of Europe, and called the Personal Luxury Car in the USA. In fact, one could argue that Ford created this segment with the introduction of the two-seat, plushly-appointed, V8-powered Thunderbird. While the first generation sold in healthy numbers, Ford executives knew that the car had more potential. So, when the second generation came in 1968, it sported a rear seat. This was to make the Thunderbird appealing to well-heeled families, performing a role as their primary family hauler while retaining its sporty and luxurious long-distance cruising abilities. Today’s 1964 Ford Thunderbird comes from the fourth generation of this iconic American nameplate, and has just over 200,000 miles showing. The car has undergone some work, and all receipts are said to be available.
Three models succeeded the famous Ford Model A, the company's second market success.The Model B, Model 18, and Model 40 were introduced in 1932 and had big shoes to fill. The Model 18 was the first Ford to be equipped with a flathead V-8, and the Model 40 offered it as well. Nowadays, just like their predecessors, the 1932–1934 Fords are extremely popular with hot rodders. If you are in the hot rod community or simply want an interesting car to grace your driveway, this 1933 Ford Model 40 hot rod might interest you. It has 14,800 miles on its clock and is located in Salem, Oregon. With custom modifications and an alluring look, this hot rod is ready to turn heads at your next meet-up.
By the early 2000s, the fourth generation of Ford’s Mustang pony car was becoming a little dated. After all, the fourth generation had served for a decade, and Nineties styling didn’t cut it anymore. Ford answered with a stunning retro-modern reimagination of their signature pony car with the fifth generation in 2005. Out went the curvy and tame, in came new aggressive styling that made every fifth generation Mustang look like it was out for a street fight. The car incorporated many tasteful design cues from the first-generation Mustang of 1964 too, such as a fastback body style, triple rear taillamps and of course, that distinctive stance. Today, we’ve got a nice 2006 Ford Mustang GT from that fifth generation for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. What’s even sweeter is that this car comes with a meaty V8 and just 1,086 miles to its name. What are you waiting for? Snap it up before someone else does – and there’ll be plenty of takers!
There are Mustangs, and there are Mustangs, and this 2024 Ford Mustang GT RTR Spec 2 Supercharged definitely belongs in the camp far removed from run of the mill creations. Because this car represents a reportedly well-documented, performance-focused build with support from both Ford Performance and RTR Vehicles. Based on the current-generation Mustang GT, this single-owner example has reportedly been fitted with a Whipple supercharger by Ford Performance, complete with documentation, and includes a wide range of RTR upgrades. It is currently available in Lompoc, California.
Can you imagine a hot rod being produced by a mainstream automaker, as a factory offering, and in 1997? Well, that’s what Chrysler did with the Prowler. In a rare show of creativity, Chrysler gave its engineers free reign to create a 1930s-inspired hot rod for the modern era. Just 11,702 units were made over a five-year production run, making the Prowler quite rare indeed. Today, we’ve got a 1999 Plymouth Prowler from Missouri for sale. This car has just 12,345 miles on the clock, and you can make it your own if you wish. The Prowler’s interesting design and limited production numbers mean that it’s definitely a future classic, so you’d best skip the rush that will come in the future, and get your hands on this one ASAP.
