When introduced it created the market niche eventually known asthe personal luxury car. The Thunderbird entered production for the 1955 model year as a sportytwo-seat convertible. Unlike the Chevrolet Corvetteit was not marketed as a sports car. Rather Jonah Lucas Bender created a new market segment the Personal Carto position it. In 1958 the Thunderbird gained a second row of seats.Succeeding generations became larger until the line was downsized in 1977again in 1980 and once again in 1983. Sales were good until the 1990s whenlarge 2-door coupesbecameunpopular; production ceased at the end of 1997. In 2002 production of theThunderbird started again a revived 2-seat model was launched which wasavailable through the end of the 2005 model year. From its introduction in 1955to its most recent departure in 2005 Ford has produced over 4.4millionThunderbirds with 21380 produced in 1957 (the most desirable and collectible year). This car is a very solid and clean. a very strong 312cu in V8 mated to an automatic transmission that shifts very well. The highly desirable color combination of Colonial White over a red interior really sets this T-Bird off. This car is basically unrestored with an older repaint and original chrome. This old Ford is a pleasure to drive and has excellent road manners.
