Ford’s Thunderbird is widely considered to be the model that kicked off the ‘personal luxury car’ segment in the Fifties. Introduced in 1955, it ran until 1997 for ten generations, and an eleventh-generation retro-modern Thunderbird was produced between 2002 and 2005. Fondly known as the T-Bird, the Thunderbird spanned many variants, from two-seat convertible to six-passenger (two bench seats) hardtop. This vehicle is a 1962 Ford Thunderbird Roadster from the third generation of the model that ran between 1961 and 1963. In fact, the Thunderbird’s model cycles were quite short, spanning three or four years each. This car comes from Florida with 81,955 miles on the clock and is reported to be an early Roadster, from the second hundred group of production of this generation. If you are looking for a piece of automobile Americana that sports an eye-catching color, is a convertible, and comes with a V8 engine from the Blue Oval, look no further than this example, which is reported to be a numbers-matching car.
This 1962 Ford Thunderbird Roadster is dressed in an eye-catching Rangoon Red paintjob and looks stunning, rolling on its original Kelsey-Hayes wire wheels with recently replaced whitewall tires. It’s got a black power convertible top, and a tonneau cover plus replacement padded deck cover are included in the sale. The current owner reports that it was undercoated when purchased, has been stored in a climate-controlled garage and has never been driven in bad weather. The interior is done in black and contrasting silver. The Thunderbird has an art deco-inspired twin-hooped dash design which is in great condition on this car. The original AM radio sits in the dash too.
The third generation T-Bird came with only one engine, the 6.4L (390ci) V8 with a three-speed Cruise-O-Matic MX automatic transmission driving the rear wheels. That’s precisely what powers this 1962 Ford Thunderbird Roadster. The engine puts out 300hp and 427lb ft. This car has also been specified at the dealer with the Tri-power option, which entails three twin-barrel carburetors. Power brakes are present to help with stopping. The car has been recently tuned up and has received new plugs and wires.
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.

To truly understand the significance of the Ford Bronco, we need to take a step back and look at the pre-1970s Bronco models. The mid-1960s Bronco was undoubtedly groundbreaking, and for the new decade, they underwent significant refinement, including improved handling, enhanced suspension systems, and a more powerful engine lineup. These improvements turned the Bronco from a conventional off-road vehicle into a competent and adaptable SUV that could handle a variety of terrains with ease. By the year 1970, the Ford Bronco was a highly renowned name and was considered a vehicle ahead of its time. What we have here is a 1970 Ford Bronco Restoration with just 12,925 miles on its clock and a lively V8 under its hood. Located in Los Angeles, California, this beauty is all set up to accompany you on your off-roading journeys.
