Vehicle Description
This 1956 Ford Thunderbird is an iconic classic with a
well-coordinated color combo and all the features you love -
including the porthole hardtop. There are even a few upgrades that
really add you your enjoyment, like the cold-blowing air
conditioning. It's a distinctive icon that has been treated with
the kind of respect that makes it an awesomely smooth V8
cruiser.
The professional repaint of the factory-correct code-Z Thunderbird
Green is quite nice. Then again, you know someone was going to take
the time and investment to get this car right. It's because this
color was only available in '56, and it is arguably the best hue
when you want to stand out without taking away from the T-bird's
overall elegance. We all love the long flowing lines, rear fender
skirts, and the continental kit on the rear. Plus, there are the
sporty details, like the hood scoop and after-burner taillights. So
this bright Thunderbird really knows how to be fast-with-class. And
the stylishness only gets amplified when you make such a solid
investment in all the iconic brightwork. The white porthole hardtop
is also practically an icon all on its own, and when it's combined
with the whitewall tires, you get a cool two-tone appearance.
If you like the way the green and white look on the outside, then
you're going to love the interior. The trim tag tells us this
attractive color combo is how this one was born, and it's all
complete and clean, right down to the color-matched steering wheel.
With the roof off, the elegance of this car is once again on
display with a well-coordinated two-tone, sporty machine-turned
panel across the dash, and the distinct plexiglas speedometer
window. This was Ford's personal luxury cruiser, and so it's great
to have nice options like power windows and the power seat. Plus,
the addition of air conditioning blowing cold with modern R134a
refrigerant is always desirable for summertime cruising.
Under the hood are more signs of proper care and a good life. The
smooth green of the engine bay funnels your attention to the red
block and bright accessories. This one looks correct, right down to
the details, like the pie dish air cleaner and Thunderbird valve
covers. The 312 cubic-inch V8 is correct for this P-code car, and
it's even topped with a Holley four-barrel carburetor. The full
package makes the proper power to keep this T-Bird cruising. Smooth
acceleration, smooth power steering, and the three-speed automatic
really make this a terrific smooth classic.
The level of care that went into this special T-bird is apparent
from every angle. Even the ultra-clean undercarriage photos prove
the total quality investment. It's a distinct collectable that's
ready to be shown off, call today!
