T-Bird Bird Rose D-Code Code Classic Vintage Collector V8 Auto Droptop Original

Description for Ford Thunderbird 1957

You're looking at a powerful 1957 Ford Thunderbird in a rare, distinct, and correct color. So take some time to look over all the details, but you know better than to pause too long on this icon. The factory-correct code-X Dusk Rose is quite distinctive. It was only available in '57, and it has the kind of sophisticated glow that adds distinction through elegance. So, it's exactly the kind of beautiful pastel everyone secretly wishes was on... their first-gen T-bird. And all your favorite hallmark elements are still in place on this example. The form-fitting chrome king front bumper, hood scoop, rear fender skirts, jet-inspired taillights, sporty rear bumper with integrated exhaust ports, and so much more that all instantly inspire nostalgia. Plus, you'll love the coordination on the whole car. It's in the details like the way the slats in the front fenders match the turbine-style wheel covers. Plus, with the folding roof in place, the white matches the whitewall tires and inner-ring of the wheel covers to give this a subtle two-tone presentation. And if you like the way the white looks against the exterior, then you'll love the way it looks in the interior. The creamy color looks nice with ample texture on the seats, dash pad, and door panels with cool T-bird logos embossed in them. When you sit down, there are plenty of original components on display, including the factory Town & Country AM radio. There's a nice floor shifter for the three-speed automatic transmission. And you even have the full factory gauge cluster in the sporty machine-turned trim of the dash. But that upgraded wood and chrome steering wheel on the tilt column also tells you that this one has been upgraded... and that feeling continues under the hood. The larger D-code "Thunderbird Special" 312 cubic-inch V8 was a nice option in '57, and so it's great to still have the correct displacement under the hood today. The correct Ford red paint on the block, chrome air cleaner, and special Thunderbird valve covers all look great in engine bay. But keen eyes will notice some cool upgrades, like the Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor that let's this V8 inhale deeply. And those bright headers add flair while also allowing this motor to exhale with more power out of the dual exhaust. As you look at the undercarriage photos, you can see investments in newer components. Plus, rack & pinion steering and front disc brake upgrades are also exactly what you want to really enjoy this classic cruiser out on the road. This is the Thunderbird with the right color and upgrades. So if you want a distinct and powerful icon, call today!
