The first generation Ford Thunderbird is a car that encompasses the popular styling queues of the 1950's from bumper to bumper. This 1955 Ford Thunderbird is an excellent example of these first generation Thunderbirds. This wonderfully presented Thunderbird has been very well maintained and has gone through an older very detailed restoration. The Torch Red exterior shines very well with no rust to be found anywhere in the body. The exterior paint is in excellent condition, as well as the exterior chrome. The exterior of this beautiful Thunderbird is complimented nicely by its very nice white convertible top, Kelsey-Hayes wire wheels wrapped in Coker wide white wall tires, correct "Thunderbird" and "V8" badges and a period correct Continental Kit. The red and white vinyl interior is in excellent condition. The nicely optioned interior includes power windows, power seat, factory in-dash tach, clock, aftermarket AM/FM stereo with cassette, and telescoping steering (currently inop). It is powered by a 292 Cu In V8 and backed by an automatic transmission. This Thunderbird starts, runs, and drives very well just as a first generation Thunderbird should. If you are in the market for a first generation Thunderbird that runs and drives as excellent as it looks, this great example is turn-key ready for that Sunday cruise or trip to your local car show.
