1957 Ford Thunderbird Description

This 1957 Ford Thunderbird has all the great features you love about this icon. The continental kit, porthole window hardtop, long sleek sheetmetal, and effortless V8, and it all comes at an exceptionally affordable price.There's nothing more beautiful than Ford's personal coupe in black and chrome. The high-quality finish on the factory correct code-A Raven Black is a testament to a life well lived. With decent panel gaps all around (particularly the hard-to-fit doors) and the optional fender skirts in place, this rules the road with a long and sleek appearance. Nice chrome accentuates this '50s icon, and the exhaust still exits through the rear bumper. The continental kit adds a touch of class that we love to see on these T-birds (even if its real purpose is to give you enough trunk space for a nice long roadtrip.) Wire wheels and whitewall tires are the perfect finishing complement to this package that is the ultimate in classic elegance.Style and luxury were the true hallmarks of this classic, and that's why it's a real class act with the top on or off. So while the porthole hardtop really gives this Thunderbird its iconic appearance, this car arguably looks even better with it removed. That's because the black with white accent on the exterior is a theme continued on the inside, too. The seats and carpeting have the kind of premium feeling that lets you know it never spent extended time in the sun. The moment you sit down, you are surrounded in individual style with a machine-turned aluminum panel flows across the dash and onto both doors. This frames many of the intricate styling touches such as logo embossed side panels and black/chrome steering wheel. Beyond that you could see the Ford Thunderbird was getting serious about competing with the Corvette with its full gauge package, including tachometer and a large speedometer prominently in the center.The 312 cubic-inch V8 is believed to be original and looks thoroughly correct with the bright red block and iconic Thunderbird logo valve covers from the factory dress-up kit. It even has an extra boost of power thanks to the Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor that boldly sits on top of this package. But don't think this upgrade makes the V8 ever lose the composure that made the Thunderbird famous. As a true personal luxury vehicle, the power steering and Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission makes driving effortless. So there's nothing stopping you from going out an enjoying this icon on the open road.Two-seater Thunderbirds will never go out of style, especially with the perfect color combination. And when you can get one that presents so well for such an exceptional price, well, then it's going to be a race to see who can pick up this personal luxury machine first. Call today!!!
