The Ford Thunderbird was America’s first personal luxury car. Inspired by Europe’s Grand Tourers, Ford wanted to create a comfortable, powerful, and luxurious two-door, two-seat vehicle designed for long-distance cruising. Introduced in 1955, ten generations of the much-loved T-Bird would be created until 1997. Then, a retro-modern eleventh generation briefly appeared in 2002 for just three years. So, if you’ve always been intrigued by these curios, you can get your hands on one today. Check out this 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe that’s up for sale right now. With a mere 42,500 miles on the clock, the current owner says that the car has received a new front end, brakes, fuel pump, and tires while in the custody of the previous owner. Two keys are included with the sale.
This 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe comes in an aptly named paint code called Thunderbird Blue. It’s a lustrous shade that invokes memories of clear skies and sunny days. To add to the beautiful effect, the car comes with its removable hardtop in white, and the top trailer for easy storage is also included with the sale. Fear not when out and about, though; there’s also a black convertible top to deploy if the sun gets too hot or if rain threatens. Questioned when new, the car’s retro-modern styling, chromed alloy wheels and interesting silhouette have aged well. This will definitely be a head-turner, in a good way. True to the Thunderbird’s origin, this 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe has a two-seat interior in shades of black, white, and blue. After the first generation, Ford was forced to include a rear seat since market trends dictated it. This is not the case for the eleventh generation; this car is purely for solo or, at most, duo enjoyment. The interior is exceptionally well-equipped, with dual-zone climate control, power windows, power mirrors, power door locks, and power operation for the convertible top. There’s also a premium stereo system with a six-disc CD changer. Behind the passenger cabin lies a spacious trunk that can easily accommodate plenty of luggage.
This 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe packs a 3.9L V8 under the hood, sending 252hp and 267lb-ft to the rear wheels via a 5-speed automatic transmission. The car features power steering and power-assisted disc brakes on all four wheels. Hence, it will be an absolute pleasure to drive, regardless of road and traffic conditions.

Ford’s Thunderbird or T-Bird is most well known for creating the American segment of Personal Luxury Cars. Aimed at rivaling Europe’s Grand Tourers, the first generation of T-Bird was a stylish and powerful two-door, two-seat coupe or convertible, with a comfortable and lavishly-equipped passenger cabin plus a roomy trunk. It was meant as a car that would be owned by the wealthy and driven by them across great distances with nary an ache or pain at the end. Subsequent generations gained a rear seat too, since Ford realized that sticking to two seats was limiting their target market. Made for ten generations between 1955 and 1997, the T-Bird firmly entrenched itself in American automotive culture. In 2002, Ford, feeling a bit misty-eyed, decided to make a eleventh generation as a homage to the original. This eleventh generation was produced for just three years and saw over 68,000 units sold. Today, we’ve got one of those cars, a 2003 Ford Thunderbird for sale from Sterling, Alaska. It’s got super low mileage too, less than 8,000 in fact, making it an absolute steal and a fantastic addition to someone who wants a definitive future classic that can be driven and enjoyed from today onwards.
One of Ford’s most fondly remembered marques, the Thunderbird created what was called the Personal Luxury Car category when it launched for the 1955 model year. Ford was paying attention to the European segment of Grand Tourers, and wanted to give Americans a slice of that stylish and luxurious long-distance motoring experience. After all, America’s highways were being built and upgraded, and soon, the well-heeled would love to drive their own luxury car across the country, from posh hotel to posh hotel. So, the first-generation Thunderbird had a lot to live up to, and live up, it did. Coming in two-door, two-seat form, it of course had a V8 up front and the most luxury features that were prevalent at the time. Today’s 1956 Ford Thunderbird has been fully restored and boasts under 9,000 miles to its name. Furthermore, this Delaware-based car comes with the Continental Kit as well.
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.

One of the most expressive and diverse segments among automotive enthusiasts is the Hot Rodding, aka Street Rodding, community. Due to their choices of a vast number of past manufacturers and decades of various models, hot rodding just keeps getting more exhilarating. Even specialized aftermarket support and additional resources are available for enthusiasts to opt for. Among the appealing classic American hot rods, the Ford Victorias maintain an important spot. However, Factory Five Racing company noticed that after converting to a Hot Rod, the handling and performance were a big disappointment. So, they took matters into their own hands and developed a kit car that stays as traditional as possible, but makes performance and drivability the focus. This outstanding example of the 1933 Factory Five '33 Hot Rod only has over 4,000 miles on its clock. Located in Eugene, Oregon, this beauty is ready to turn heads at your next Hot Rod event.

Its nearest challenger, the Chevy Camaro bid goodbye last year, while the Mustang has now entered a seventh generation.

Machines like this 2014 Ford Mustang GT Premium Saleen S302 that’s been fettled by Saleen, another well-known American tuning house. Better yet, this fifth-generation pony has galloped a little over 20,000 miles so far and is currently stabled in Devine, Texas.

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.
