Chevrolet Corvette. In 1955, Ford decided it was their turn and
gave full reigns to their team to design a two-seater that was for
the everyday person. Though the first installment wasn't as fast as
those from Chevy, they eventually solidified the Thunderbird as a
classy two-seater with some power. 1957 would end up being the last
version of the Thunderbird that was known for its sporty demeanor
and allowing only two people in the cabin, as they would later
redesign the car moving forward. Other standout features included a
power seat, a radio that was controlled by speed, a new dash and
console area, and fins that made the car show off a bit more than
its predecessors. The Thunderbirds are still highly collectible and
sought after in today's market. This is one that shouldn't be
missed.
