1955 FORD THUNDERBIRD PROJECT

Description for Ford Thunderbird 1955

FOR SALE IS A 1955 FORD THUNDERBIRD WITH THE REMOVABLE HARDTOP. THE RUST HAS BEEN CUT OUT AND PANELS AND PATCHES WELDED PROFESSIONALLY AND THE BODY AND TOP HAS BEEN FINISHED AND READY FOR FINAL SANDING AND PAINTING. THE INTERIOR NEEDS TO BE REDONE. I DO HAVE THE INTERIOR FROM A 1956 T-BIRD (RED AND WHITE). THE ENGINE. I THINK. IS ORIGINAL. AFTER SITTING FOR 25-30 YEARS. IT STARTED RIGHT UP AND SOUNDED VERY GOOD WITH NO SMOKE. THE TRANS SEEMS TO WORK AS WE DROVE IT AROUND THE LOT AND IT RUNS FORWARD AND BACKWARD. IT NEEDS ENGINE BAY WIRING AND DASH WIRING AND I HAVE THE WIRING FROM A 1956 THAT IS IN GOOD CONDITION. I HAVE THE SEAT SPRINGS AND THEY ARE IN GOOD CONDITION. I ALSO THINK I HAVE THE POWER SEAT MOTORS. I HAVE A NEW POWER WINDOW KIT AND A POWER STEERING SYSTEM THAT I WILL SELL SEPARATELY. I HAD THE FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS. BUT WHEN I GOT THE CAR BACK FROM THE BODY SHOP. I AM NOT SURE THEY CAME BACK. I THINK I HAVE MOST OF THE CHROME WORK AND SOME OF IT HAS BEEN RECHROMED. THE WINDSHIELD IS OUT AND NEEDS REPLACING. THE DASH NEEDS TO BE RESTORED AND THERE MAY BE SOME RUST ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE OF THE DASH. THE TIRES ARE LARGE WHITEWALL EXCEPT ONE. THE SHOP CHANGED THE REAR TIRE FOR SOME REASON. THE SHOP CLOSED AND THE OWNER LEFT SO I HAVE NO RECOURSE. THE BRAKES ARE NEW AND THE FUEL TANK IS NEW. I HAVE THE REAR SKIRTS THAT I WILL SELL SEPARATELY. ------------THIS IS A PROJECT AND SHOULD BE PURCHASED WITH THAT IN MIND-------------- I CANNOT ADEQUATELY DESCRIBE THE CAR .
