The 1955 Ford Thunderbird is an icon of 1950s American
motoring-stylish, powerful, and built for cruising. This example
stays true to its roots with a code-correct Raven Black exterior
and a brand-new Tuxedo Black & White interior, offering the classic
two-seat roadster experience with both a porthole hardtop and a
white soft top for versatility.
Under the hood, it runs strong with a 292CI V8, paired with a
3-speed Fordomatic automatic transmission and a Holley carburetor
for smooth performance. The power steering makes for easy handling,
while the manual drum brakes have been serviced with new wheel
cylinders and shoes for reliable stopping power.
It sits on 15" wire wheels wrapped in Coker Classic whitewall tires
(P205/75R15), giving it that unmistakable vintage stance. Fender
skirts complete the classic look. Inside, comfort and convenience
were ahead of their time with power windows, a power-adjustable
seat, a floor-mounted shifter, and a working heater. The radio,
indicators, lights, and wipers all function properly, keeping this
T-Bird as usable as it is beautiful.
