For Sale: 1957 Ford Thunderbird in Mesa, Arizona

Classic Car Addict is excited to present this beautiful 1957 Ford Thunderbird convertible for sale in our Mesa, AZ showroom. Two-seater Ford Thunderbirds made a huge splash between 1955 and 1957. Their appeal and name recognition continue almost seventy years later. "Porthole" windows in the '56 and '57 removable hardtops remain a styling icon. The one-year-only fins on the '57 'Birds make them unique within this fine flock.
The factory ordered Gunmetal gray with colonial white top was fully repainted to Flame Red sometime between 2012-2016 from a professional restoration shop in California. This is one of the most striking color combinations and who can deny the attraction of a red Thunderbird? A removable hardtop come with the car as well as a stand for the hardtop. Mirror like chrome bumpers, egg crate grille, and for the rear in bumper exhaust ports, this car screams look at me.
Code XH indicates that the original interior trim was Flame Red. The consignor had the interior fully re-done after the paint was completed. They upgraded the interior to white. The seats are in excellent condition with no tears or cracks. The dash has a big, curved overhanging cowl in padded white vinyl for the topper, and more machined aluminum and a litany of round gauges and chrome bezel black knobs and pulls. A town and country AM radio is neatly installed and as we gaze across the dash we can note temp, fan controls, and a nearly hidden glove box, but the deeply inset keyhole gives it away.
With a flip of the front hinged hood there's more "bling" with some sting with a V8 312ci. Painted in red with a totally restored engine bay with a 4-barrel carb backed by a 3-speed automatic Ford-O-Matic transmission. This is a beautiful well-kept Thunderbird. She fires right up with a low rumble and is ready to attack the streets. Smooth shifts, handles great and the power brakes function perfectly. It also includes a spare tire located in the trunk.
This Thunderbird will be sold on a clean Arizona title with receipts and a service manual. This is a beautifully restored classic and a fun driving car. Call Classic Car Addict today with any questions, 480-256-1459.
