1955 FORD THUNDERBIRD; ORIGINAL 292 V-8; 3-SPEED MANUAL, EX. COND. (video)

Description for Ford Thunderbird 1955

1955 Ford Thunderbird repainted and restored in its original factory colors of Ford Thunderbird Blue and a white top. Interior was redone in the original color's turquoise and white. Estimated time of restoration is mid 2000's and approximate mileage since then is estimated at 10,000.

The 6-volt electrical system was changed over to 12-volt around 2012. Power interior options include seat and windows which function normally and a telescopic steering column. All of the gauges work including the clock and tachometer. the temperature reads backwards, and the radio does not work, but the power antenna goes up without any issues.

The original 292 Thunderbird V-8 was rebuilt at the time of the restoration and runs great no apparent leaks and does not overheat. New carburetor was added in 2013, power steering and brakes work fine. Factory 3-speed manual transmission shifts solid.

The suspension was redone at the same time as the resto and the car rides smoothly. New front-end bushings, tie rod ends, and complete brake system was added. New fuel lines and gas tank. New radial wide white wall tires were purchased in the past month.

The paint and bodywork are showing their age and a small 'crease' is on the right front fender as if something fell on it. It is a good 10-footer. Please view all pictures carefully and feel free to ask questions.

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 15 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 10 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, "Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
