In 1955, Ford sent out a reminder to the world that sporty, good-looking cars were still a part of their expertise by producing the Thunderbird. The Thunderbird was the auto giant's first two-seater since 1938. Ford called it a 'personal car of distinction,' which, put simply, means that this car and anyone who dared to own it were unique. This first-generation 1956 Ford Thunderbird is currently with its 3rd owner in Florida and has been garage-kept its entire life. The sale includes all original documentation.
This 1956 Ford Thunderbird comes in what ford calls 'Fiesta Red'. More trunk space was added for this model, with the spare wheel mounted outside and the exhaust tips moved to the bumpers' ends. Our subject car comes with a white soft-top with the hard-top included in the sale. Also included are all new rubber, new brakes with new hoses and wheel cylinders in the rear, new control arms and swaybar bushings, and four new shocks. The car also has back-up light housing and a functioning overdrive for better fuel efficiency, new steel gas lines from front to rear, a new window regulator, and a factory jack included. The interior is color-matched to blend in with the outside of the car except for a few contrasting white accents that highlight the car's retro aspect. The interior lights are reportedly operational, gauge needles repainted, and a custom aftermarket radio system has been installed.
The most impressive aspect of this Thunderbird is its detailed engine bay housing the 312ci 5.1L Y-block engine with a refreshed carb and generator. All fluids have been changed, valves adjusted and tuned, and all new lines under the car replaced. A 3-speed standard manual transmission controls power.

The 1956 Ford Thunderbird represents one of the most iconic American personal luxury cars of the 1950s, melding graceful styling with V8 power in a two-seat roadster format. This example presents beautifully in red with a matching red interior, exuding 1950s glamour and Americana. Under the hood, it retains its factory-correct 292ci V8 with the signature Thunderbird script valve covers and a Holley “Teapot” 4-barrel carburetor, delivering a smooth, refined driving experience through a Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission. This car is a rolling tribute to an era when design and simplicity defined American excellence.
Ford’s contribution to American motoring history in the luxury segment, the Thunderbird came in 1955 and created the Personal Luxury Car segment. The idea was to replicate what was called the Grand Tourer in Europe. After all, the United States was gaining some fine interstates, crisscrossing the land and connecting East and West. There was stunning scenery, interesting culture and culinary delights to be explored. All the well-heeled needed was a suitable car to connect them all with. That’s where the Personal Luxury Car came in. The Thunderbird ran from 1955 to 1997 across ten generations, then a homage eleventh generation was made between 2002 and 2005. Today’s 1989 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe is from the tenth generation and resides in Delray Beach, Florida. It’s got just 10,500 miles on its wheels, and a supercharged engine under its hood! Join us as we tell you more, and if you’d like to own this car, we’re ready to help.
Known as the creator of the Personal Luxury Car segment, Ford’s Thunderbird drew inspiration from Europe’s grand tourers—machines built for comfort, elegance, and long-distance cruising. Ford ultimately produced eleven generations of the T-Bird, evolving from its original two-seat layout to a more versatile four-seat design that broadened its appeal. This 1960 Ford Thunderbird is a standout second-generation example currently offered in Aptos, California. With only 12,510 miles since its full restoration, this car presents as a well-preserved and thoughtfully updated classic. Upgrades such as a front disc brake conversion and electric windshield wipers enhance drivability while maintaining its vintage charm. The sale also includes a car cover and a reprinted original owner’s manual, making it an inviting opportunity to own and enjoy a piece of American automotive history.
This 1950 Ford F-1 represents a landmark moment in American truck history as part of Ford’s first-generation F-Series, a line that defined the modern pickup and continues to this day. Known for its rounded styling, solid construction, and honest utility, the F-1 quickly became a favorite among farmers, tradesmen, and enthusiasts alike. This example preserves that iconic presence while incorporating thoughtful mechanical and comfort enhancements that make it far more enjoyable and usable in contemporary driving conditions.
The fourteenth generation of the Ford F-150 was introduced in 2021, and remains the current one on sale. There are several variants, including the Raptor and Lightning, but this particular truck is a little different. You see, it’s a 2021 Ford F-150 Shelby which, as the last part of its name suggests, has received tuning by Shelby American, the company founded by the legendary Carroll Shelby. Yes, Shelby didn’t only tune Mustangs; he turned his attention to other Ford models, and after his demise, the company continues that fine legacy. So, just how potent is this machine? Well, how does 950 horsepower grab you? We’d say that it grabs you very strongly indeed. If you’d like to own this fearsome beast, it’s up for sale in Torrance with a mere 47,521 miles on it so far.
This 1966 Ford F-250 Crown Crew Cab 4×4 is a rare example of a purpose-built heavy-duty truck ordered with both specialized coachwork and Ford’s upscale Custom Cab specification. Unlike the standard fleet-grade bodies typically used for Crown conversions, this truck was built on a F-250 platform and equipped from new with the 81B Custom Cab package, pairing a four-door Crown-built body with Ford’s highest interior trim of the period. A comprehensive, factory-correct restoration was carried out with the singular goal of returning the truck precisely to its original 1966 configuration rather than modernizing or reinterpreting it. The combination of Custom Cab trim, Crown coachwork, faithfully recreated upholstery materials, and original-style factory air conditioning places this truck among the most authentic Crown crew cab F-250s known, supported by Hemmings documentation and minimal mileage since completion.
