Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is excited to present this 1956 Ford Thunderbird
for your consideration. Dressed in a classic black finish with a
matching black soft top, this early American icon exudes 1950s
elegance and charm. Its timeless proportions, fender skirts, and
rear-mounted continental kit showcase the styling cues that helped
make the Thunderbird an instant classic. Accented with Coker
steel-belted wide whitewall tires and gleaming chrome details, this
convertible turns heads wherever it goes.
Under the hood lies a strong-running 312ci V8 engine, mated to an
automatic transmission, delivering smooth and confident cruising.
This T-Bird has been thoughtfully upgraded for improved reliability
and drivability, including a high-flow water pump, PCV conversion,
PerTronix ignition with a Flame-Thrower coil, and a rebuilt and
plated carburetor. The vacuum advance has been rebuilt,
contributing to proper ignition timing and efficiency, while
stainless steel brake lines add long-term durability.
Driving dynamics have also been enhanced with the addition of KYB
shocks, Quikkor front and rear anti-sway bars, and front disc
brakes-significant upgrades that improve ride quality, handling,
and stopping power without sacrificing the car's original
character. Whether you're cruising down a scenic road or attending
a classic car show, this Thunderbird offers a refined yet powerful
vintage experience.
Inside, the cabin features a stunning red and white leather
interior that perfectly complements the car's black exterior. The
seating, dash, and trim remain true to the 1950s aesthetic while
offering a comfortable, inviting space for top-down motoring.
The 1956 model year is one of the most desirable among collectors
due to its iconic styling and refined improvements over the
first-year model. With tasteful upgrades and a beautifully
preserved aesthetic, this Thunderbird is an ideal combination of
vintage flair and modern drivability.
