Owned by one family since 1960, this 1956 Ford Thunderbird carries
genuine American automotive heritage. Colonial White exterior
adorns the clean, flowing shape that made the first-generation
T-Birds famous. Chrome brightwork runs throughout the body, adding
brilliant contrast against the white paint. The beige canvas
convertible top folds down for open-air driving while the included
removable hardtop offers all-weather versatility. A Continental kit
extends the rear section, adding to the classic 50s aesthetic. The
15-inch wheels wrapped in 205/75R15 tires complete the external
package with proper proportions and stance.
The red and white vinyl interior creates a bold two-tone look that
Ford designers crafted for maximum visual appeal. The bench seat
offers ample room for two passengers while maintaining the original
design. Well-presented door panels flank the cabin while the
dashboard houses clear, legible gauges that monitor vehicle
functions. The floor shifter falls easily to hand for controlling
the automatic transmission. An AM/FM cassette player provides audio
entertainment during drives.
A 312 V8 engine gives this Thunderbird substantial power for
highway cruising. The V8 connects to a 3-speed automatic
transmission (C4) for effortless gear changes. A single 4-barrel
carburetor manages fuel delivery while the dual exhaust system with
aftermarket mufflers produces a rich exhaust note. Front suspension
uses coil springs with shocks and a sway bar for improved handling,
while leaf springs with shocks control the rear. Power drum brakes
bring everything to a stop when needed. The factory rear end rounds
out the drivetrain, creating a solid mechanical package for this
classic Ford.
