Vehicle Description
The full red presentation of this 1957 Ford Thunderbird shows it's
a true red-blooded all-American. And so when you can get the icon
you love (including the porthole hardtop) for a value price, then
you know you need to know more about this T-bird.
We like the style of this Thunderbird. It's the product of an older
restoration, so it has a good gloss on the upgraded red paint, but
there's an aged-in style that sets a vintage tone on a true classic
like this. Plus, good body panels and straight lines help with a
quality appearance. And all your favorite hallmark pieces are in
place, including the stylized chrome bumpers, hood scoop trim,
jet-inspired tail lights, and exhaust routed through the rear
bumper. And the porthole hardtop is a true icon that we all love to
see on these first-gen cars. Basically, you know the price when a
'57 T-bird is freshly restored, and so this one has a value price
in case you want to add your own personal touches. But from day
one, you have a vehicle that's quite clean and complete that's
ready to hit the boulevard.
As cool as this is with the hardtop in place, a convertible loves
to be open to the world. And that really is true for this one,
because you'll love showing off the sharp red interior. It gets the
fundamentals right with the upholstery, carpeting, dash all looking
great. And this also has the details you'll love, like the working
clock and the Thunderbird logos in the clean door panels. A grippy
steering wheel, machine-turned dash panels, floor shifter, and full
gauges w/tach are all there to make sure that this personal luxury
cruiser also has a nice hint of sporty attitude.
The larger D-code 312 cubic-inch V8 was a nice option in '57, and
so it's ideal to still have the correct displacement still under
the hood today. The correct Ford red paint on the block, chrome air
cleaner, and special Thunderbird valve covers all look great in the
engine bay. Plus, there's a newer Holley four-barrel carburetor
sitting on top of this V8. This is the kind of classic that wants
you to feel the road, but it also is never rough in a Thunderbird.
That's why you have easy cruising features like a supple ride and a
three-speed automatic transmission.
The sale comes complete with restoration photos, service manuals,
and the owner's manual. This is the all-red '57 T-bird that offers
a solid value for the price. So don't miss this deal. Call now!
