For Sale: 1957 Ford Thunderbird in Lutz, Florida

Although 1957 may bring to mind one specific car, one look at this 1957 Ford Thunderbird Convertible, and it's easy to see that the Blue Oval's top-tier droptop was one of the most beautiful cars to ever emerge from that (or any) decade. Fully repainted in this eye-catching Raven Black with its contrasting white removable hard top, this classic beauty comes correct with all the chrome and badges to remind the world just how special this car is.

Inside this two-seat sports car, we find a black and white pleated vinyl interior with an original-looking dashboard complete with its five-pot gauge cluster highlighted by a big 140 mph speedometer. The three-spoke, double-rimmed steering wheel features a Thunderbird logo center cap, reminding anyone driving that they are piloting a true classic.

Under the front-hinged hood, we find a 312 cubic-inch V-8 topped by a single four-barrel carburetor, which Ford advertised as producing 245 hp when the Thunderbird was new. Power from that small block is then channeled through a three-speed Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission before exiting through its dual exhaust and glasspack-style mufflers.
