1 of 50
Vehicle Description This 1956 Ford Thunderbird is a distinctive icon that has been treated with the kind of respect that makes it an awesomely smooth V8 cruiser.
There's so much to love about a first-generation T-bird.
It's rolling elegance with the long flowing lines, rear fender skirts, whitewall tires, and the continental kit on the rear.
Plus, there are the sporty details, like the hood scoop and after-burner tail lights.
But what we bet first attracted you to this one was the paint.
The color looks close to the 1956-correct Peacock Blue.
It was one of those single-year colors that you don't see too often, but it has the vibrant personality that you just know belongs on a Thunderbird.
And since this color was an upgrade later in life, it also has a good gloss and shine to make sure this convertible looks good driving down the boulevard on any sunny Sunday.
The black convertible top is a newer piece with a crisp and clean look against the exterior blue.
But for a true formalwear experience, you need to take it down.
After all, the black and white two-tone interior gives this bright T-bird the sophistication of a tuxedo.
There's an overall elegant feeling that comes from nice details, like the smooth dash pad and the 1950s-cool plexiglas speedometer window.
And while this is quite vintage, you'll spot well-integrated worthwhile upgrades like seatbelts and an AM/FM digital tuner w/cassette.
It also has a sporty side, too, with the floor shifter, tachometer, and the machined-turned panel that flows from the doors and across the lower dash.
It really gives this the personal cruiser feeling we love in these T-Birds.
The engine bay has a very clean and correct style.
The bright red block, pie dish air cleaner, Thunderbird valve covers, and all the little details give this the kind of appearance that will have you lifting the hood at car shows.
More than just look good, the powerful 312 cubic-inch V8 with four-barrel carburetor is correct for this P-code car.
We even have maintenance records showing it was rebuilt in 2014.
The V8 fires up easily and the confident shifts of the three-speed automatic really make this a terrific classic cruiser.
And power steering, power brakes, and front discs add to this effortless feeling.
This is the Thunderbird with a great vintage style and a strong V8 heart.
So you know you don't want to let this one slip away.
