This 1957 Ford Thunderbird E-Code convertible is powered by a
correct 312ci Thunderbird Special V-8 engine rated at 271hp,
equipped with factory dual four-barrel carburation. The engine
retains correct ECJ-9510 carburetors with proper linkage and the
correct garbage can-style fuel filter, along with Ford's factory
engine dress option. Power is delivered through a Ford-O-Matic
three-speed automatic transmission. The car is equipped with Master
Guide power steering and Ford Swift Sure power brakes. The interior
features a Minter-restored XH-code red interior finished to
concours standards with correct embossments, along with a Town &
Country signal-seeking radio, accessory backup lights and
factory-correct appointments throughout. The exterior was
refinished during a professional Minter restoration completed in
2016 and returned to data-plate specifications, finished in
Gunmetal Gray. The car includes both original tops, consisting of a
Minter-restored black canvas convertible top with authentic
detailing and a porthole hardtop finished to concours-correct
standards. The restoration has test miles since completion. From
