Overview of 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe For Sale by Owner

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.

Exterior and Interior

Finished in Black, the Thunderbird’s exterior features rounded body lines, a prominent chrome grille, circular headlamps, and signature porthole-style hardtop capability. The factory chrome wheels and low, wide stance give the car a refined yet muscular appearance. Inside, the Ebony interior presents a clean, driver-focused layout with leather seating, metallic trim accents, and period-correct switchgear. The Deluxe trim adds comfort-oriented features while maintaining a cohesive retro-modern aesthetic that feels intentionally restrained rather than flashy.

Engine

Power is supplied by a naturally aspirated 3.9L V8 paired to a 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, delivering smooth, linear acceleration suited for relaxed cruising. Rear-wheel drive and an independent suspension setup provide balanced handling, while four-wheel disc brakes with ABS ensure confident stopping power. Tuned more for refinement than outright aggression, the Thunderbird offers a composed, comfortable driving experience that prioritizes style, sound, and effortless torque over sharp-edged performance.

1930 Ford Model A Coupe Street Rod

Current Ask
$55,000

This 1930 Ford Model A Coupe Street Rod is the kind of build that rewards a closer look, because the craftsmanship underneath is every bit as important as the period hot-rod silhouette above it. Showing approximately 1,788 miles, this custom rotisserie-built coupe pairs a 350ci Goodwrench V8 crate engine with GM electronic fuel injection and a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission, giving the car the response and reliability of a much newer setup without taking away from its traditional street-rod character. The chassis has been thoroughly reworked with a custom fully boxed frame, Ford 9-inch rear end, rack-and-pinion steering, power front disc brakes, and rear 4-link suspension with coilovers. Finished in two-tone Gray and Silver over a Gray and Charcoal interior, it also wears Magnum 500 wheels with Coker Classic whitewalls and carries a red-accented undercarriage that turns the underside into part of the show.

1932 Ford Model 18 5-Window Coupe Hot Rod

Current Ask
$74,700

This 1932 Ford Model 18 5-Window Coupe Hot Rod is an all-steel, heavily customized build that combines authentic early-Ford architecture with the unmistakable performance character of a 1969 Corvette-sourced 427ci Big-Block Chevrolet V8. Showing approximately 6,977 miles, the car was conceived as a one-of-one creation rather than a conventional street rod, with virtually every major component selected or engineered around its distinctive combination of vintage Henry Ford steel and big-block Chevrolet power. Its all-steel 1932 Ford 5-window body has been given a dramatic 4-inch roof chop, producing the low, aggressive profile at the heart of the build, while the fenderless front end, exposed suspension, deep-dish Cragar S/S wheels, front skinnies, and substantial rear performance rubber reinforce its traditional hot-rod attitude. Beneath the body is a custom fully boxed aftermarket frame designed to cope with the torque of the 427, backed by a heavy-duty TH400 automatic and Ford 9-inch rear axle. According to the seller, the car has also received significant publicity and attracted attention from collectors, further separating it from the typical home-built street rod.

1969 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350H

Current Ask
$99,999

By 1969, the Shelby GT350 had evolved from the raw, competition-minded Mustang of the mid-1960s into something broader in character: still unmistakably performance-focused, but now with the presence and comfort of a true high-speed grand tourer. This 1969 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 shows approximately 80,436 miles and wears Black Jade over a Black interior with red seat accents, a combination that suits the car’s more mature personality especially well. Its Shelby identity is everywhere, from the functional twin-scoop fiberglass hood and Cobra-branded grille to the side scoops, GT350 graphics, rear decklid spoiler, Shelby Automotive identification plate, and Carroll Shelby signature across the passenger-side dash. Underneath, the 351ci Windsor V8, SelectShift Cruise-O-Matic automatic, and 3.25:1 Traction-Lok rear axle give it the kind of effortless V8 pace expected from a late-1960s Shelby, while power steering, power-assisted front disc brakes, and air conditioning make this example as much a road-going GT as it is a muscle car. It is a fitting snapshot of the moment when Shelby Mustangs became less about stripped-down competition and more about combining speed, style, and long-distance usability.
