For Sale: 1957 Ford Thunderbird in Lutz, Florida

Vehicle Description

Forget everything you know about a first-gen T-bird because this one breaks all the rules. It's a 1957 Ford Thunderbird Restomod that gives you an absolutely stunning presentation of the iconic lines. Plus, the tight body panels and fresh chrome signal a top-quality restoration. And we bet you'll touch the slick red paint just to make sure it isn't still wet. It gets the details of the icon right with a porthole hardtop, tuck-and-roll upholstery, and the machine-turned panel flowing across the dash. So if this one is so awesome, why did we lead by calling this a rule-breaker? It's because you have one of the biggest of the big blocks from Chevy under the hood. And it has been done in a full race-prep setup. As you look underneath, the custom Art Morrison chassis has a spotless kind of style that looks like it cost six figures all by itself. But this clean look also shows you some serious hardware. The fully upgraded suspension, shortened 9-inch rear, extra wide rear tires, Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes, and a Powerglide transmission makes for the kind of dragstrip contender setup you'd never expect. The full package is both a museum piece and a quarter-mile king. So we won't tell you what to do with it, but anything that you choose is likely going to take home some big awards.
