1957 Ford Thunderbird
“Sometimes the best ideas don't come from inside a company but rather spring forth as a reaction to external forces. When Chevrolet brought its two-seat Corvette to the New York Auto Show in 1953, it couldn't have known that it was about to inspire Ford to punch back with one of the most storied nameplates in the Blue Oval's history: the Thunderbird.” - Hagerty
One of the most revered Thunderbirds is the 1957 with its re-designed front bumper and available hardtop with porthole windows. This 1957 Thunderbird featured in its original color of Raven Black with two tone black and white interior shows well and drives great. Although never rotisserie restored this vehicle has been well maintained and updated as needed.
The older exterior repaint shows well with only a few areas of imperfections. The Raven Black paint has great depth and shine. The chrome although older and in some cases appears original presents well without any major dents or pitting.
The two-tone interior upholstery had been replaced several years ago and shows very nicely and is void of any areas of excessive wear.
To the best of our knowledge the 312 cubic inch motor has not been rebuilt but only well maintained throughout the years. With the turn of the key the Thunderbird starts right up and easily goes through the gears of the automatic transmission.
Whether driving with the black hardtop, black vinyl soft top or just open cruising you will enjoy the experience in this 1957 “baby bird”.
