Used 1957 Ford Thunderbird for sale in Lake Mary, Florida
Gateway Classic Cars of Orlando is proud to present this 1957 Ford Thunderbird. The Ford Thunderbird began life in February 1953 in direct response to Chevrolets new sports car, the Corvette, which was publicly unveiled in prototype form just a month before. Under rapid development, the Thunderbird went from idea to prototype in about a year, being unveiled to the public at the Detroit Auto Show on February 20, 1954. Like the Corvette, the Thunderbird had a two-seat coupe/convertible layout. Production of the Thunderbird began later on in 1954 on September 9 with the car beginning sales as a 1955 model on October 22, 1954. Though sharing some design characteristics with other Fords of the time, such as single, circular headlamps and tail lamps and modest tailfins, the Thunderbird was sleeker and more athletic in shape, and had features like a faux hood scoop and a 140-mph speedometer hinting a higher performance nature that other Fords didnt possess. This particular Thunderbird has the 312 V8 engine and 3 speed automatic and is in good driver quality condition. The exterior is finished in black and features at black removable hard top. It has beautiful chrome accents that make this car stand out in the crowd. The interior wasn’t forgotten on this classic either and features a red bench seat and contrasting carpets and headliner. All in all, this adds up to a porthole window Baby Bird that really is a joy to drive. It is hard to not look good driving a Thunderbird, especially when it is a T-Bird that looks this good.
