Vehicle Description
1957 Ford Thunderbird Convertible, Willow Green over white vinyl
interior with white hardtop. This is a California survivor car that
has never been restored; it's in exceptional condition considering
its age, but as with any old car has a few maintenance issues
worthy of attention to keep it the rare survivor that it is. Unlike
many survivors, this car is quite nice. The paint is in good shape,
undamaged, and a color not often seen which has come back into
vogue. Reportedly Willy Nelson owns the twin to this car, also a CA
survivor etc. Exterior body is straight, undamaged, and in great
shape. No collision damage or rust except for dry rust patina
observed to undercarriage. The interior seats are showing some wear
and while decent, could stand to be recovered. Seat covers are
readily available to these Tri-five baby birds and are inexpensive.
The seat cushion foam has just settled with age over the years,
otherwise only minor bolster wear to edges. Carpet looks great.
Only light fading is apparent. The hardtop is white in color and in
great shape. The headliner of the hardtop has some thinning at the
seams and can probably use replacement by now. It's perfectly
presentable and usable as-is, but replacement is in its future as a
wear-item with age. Mechanically the engine is strong. Carburetor
recently rebuilt. The car does not smoke. Transmission shifts
through all detents just fine. Please Note The Following **Vehicle
