For Sale: 1957 Ford Thunderbird in Lutz, Florida

Vehicle Description

Although the first generation lasted only three years, a single glance at this 1957 Ford Thunderbird Convertible reveals that quality can be far more memorable than quantity. Repainted in eye-catching classic white, with its complementing white convertible soft top, and matching removable hardtop, this classic beauty comes complete 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 Pleated Raven Black interior. A three-spoke power-assisted steering wheel sits just ahead of a five-pot gauge cluster highlighted by a large 140 mph speedometer surrounded by four auxiliary gauges. The clean, expansive padded dashboard features brushed aluminum trim and an AM/FM cassette head unit with satellite radio connectivity. Minimalist HVAC controls keep things simple, while power windows make having fun in the sun that much easier.

Under the front-hinged hood, we find a period-correct 312 cubic-inch V-8 engine topped by a rebuilt single four-barrel carburetor, which resides under its domed air cleaner. Power from that small block is then channeled through a three-speed Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission before exiting through its dual exhaust and turbo mufflers, giving this old-school roadster an authentic sound.
