Thank you for your interest in this stunning 1955 Ford Thunderbird
presented by Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa. One of the most
beautiful pieces of Americana, they were considered to be direct
competition to the Chevrolet Corvette. Helping spawn a new
generation of automobiles in the United States, and aimed to take
on the European market, the Ford Thunderbird was powered by a 292
CID V8, which gave the already smaller, lighter car the power it
needed to make for both an excellent road racer as well as the
perfect car for older couples to sit back and enjoy a movie at the
drive-in. Mated to the engine is a 2-speed automatic transmission,
which allowed the car for fairly smooth shifting, but in the higher
gear allowed the vehicle to cruise at highway speeds without
drinking too much gas. The interior of this car is a beautiful red
and white two tone seating, with red carpets throughout. The
hard-top is painted in white to give the car a two-tone look. Take
the top off to enjoy the beautiful weather in absolute style! The
exterior is painted to match the interior, with a stunning bright
red paint job with a new black top that really gives the car a high
quality 1950's kind of feel. Driving a 1955 Ford Thunderbird is
truly an experience one simply cannot explain, these cars are the
truest form of Americana one can find. Options include AM Radio,
Hub Caps, Seat Belts, Vinyl Interior, Wide White Walls, Wire
Wheels, Power Steering, Power Brakes and Power seat. To see this
