For Sale: 1956 Ford Thunderbird in Oxnard , California

Offered here is a remarkably striking and customized 1956 Ford Thunderbird mild rod. The fine car sits and sounds right and is truly a beautiful automobile. The show quality deep metallic green paint with black stripes with subtle pinstripe are exremely sharp and handsome. A lowering system is installed to raise or lower the car to a desired height. The car looks amazingly cool lowered to the ground. The hand fabricated tubular air ride suspension with four corner disc brakes has the automobile riding like on a cloud and stops like a race car. All the chrome and stainless is sparkling including the one-piece Smoothy front and rear bumpers. Each Wheel Smith chrome spoked wheel has a meticulously handpainted Cobra icon on each spinner.

The genuine leather interior upholstery has very clean lines with much attention paid to fit, finish and detail. The owner is 6'-2" tall and states he has plenty of room in the driver's compartment for extremely comfortable driving, shifting and cruising. The seats have a wonderful lumbar feature built into the seat backs. A classic and matching porthole removeable hardtop will come with this sale. (Please see photo).

I was driven in this car and it performs and handles as a new vehicle. Very solid, responsive and extremely powerful. Large Magnaflows produce a deep throaty sound when you step on it and settle down to a very comfortable purr when cruising. The car does not lean and tracks corners like a slot car. Power comes by a 4.6 Liter Cobra V/8 that is beautufully polished, balanced and blueprinted. (Noteworthy...this T-Bird cruises at 1100 RPMs at 70 mph and gets 20 mpg). The engine is matched to a Tremec T-5, 5-speed manual transmission. All-in-all this vehicle performs incredibly.
