Vehicle Description
Proud to bring to market here at the GR Auto Gallery is this period
correct first year Thunderbird. Ford's answer to the very popular
Corvette, the Thunderbird had to not only put Ford back on the
radar for the people that wanted a roadster but also one that had
some power. The first year the T-Bird out sold the smaller corvette
almost 23-1 ratio. Ford not only wanted a sporty roadster, but a
car that was enjoyable to drive. Success was multiplied with the
performance and style that left dealerships begging for more
inventory in the mid to late 50's.
The 1955 Ford Thunderbird offered here is a wonderful example
finished in Thunderbird Blue over black and white interior. the car
is powered by its 292 V8 engine paired with an automatic
transmission and rear wheel drive. the car is a desirable
"California Edition" and features removable hardtop, turned
aluminum interior brightwork, rear fender skirts, upgraded stereo,
signature through exhaust rear bumper, and rides on wide whitewall
tires with color coded steel wheels and factory hubcaps.
First generation Ford Thunderbirds are an American automotive icon
and a blue chip auto investment. Mechanically, this t-bird starts,
runs and drives very well and is ready to show and go.
