Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to digitally present this
majestic 1956 Ford Thunderbird. The "Baby Birds" from 1955 - 1957
are a true work of art and just may be the most beautiful cars to
ever roll off of a Ford assembly line. This black beauty has been
in the ownership of the same family for nearly four decades and was
restored within the past five years. During the restoration
process, the front brakes were upgraded to disc, and power steering
was added along with an aluminum radiator. The 292ci engines
weren't known to be the smoothest running of V-8s, but this one has
been tuned beautifully and runs exceptionally nice. The gorgeous
black exterior, white and black interior, white convertible top,
and wide whites create a true masterpiece that deserves a standing
ovation. In '56, it's believed only 3,800 T-birds were sprayed in
Raven Black. How many of those are left on the road today? There's
absolutely no way you could purchase a baby bird and bring it to
this level for this price.
