1956 Ford Thunderbird Convertible

1956 Ford Thunderbird for sale. This is a striking 1956 Ford Thunderbird. The first-generation Thunderbirds were some of the most iconic automobiles ever created by Ford. They came onto the scene in 1955 in direct response to the Chevrolet Corvette and many European sports cars of the time. The original concept looked a bit foreign and the actual production model proved to be more American and luxurious. This fine example is just jaw-dropping. It features the original shade of Peacock Blue with matching blue and white interior, peacock blue hardtop without porthole and white soft top. Powering up this iconic beauty is the original matching numbers 312 Cubic Inch Y-Block mated to the 2-Speed Ford-O-Matic transmission which was very similar to the Powerglide of the time. This car had some great options for that era, including a hood scoop, fender skirts, both tops, Ford Master Guide power steering and Swift Sure Ford power brakes.
