1955 Thunderbird Convertible W/ Hard Top, Texas Car, Solid Body on 2040-cars

RE-LISTED DUE TO NON-PAYING BUYER. THIS LITTLE BIRD IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. ALWAYS STORED IN A CLIMATE CONTROLLED SPACE. AS PHOTOS EXHIBIT PAINT HAS EXCELLENT SHINE, CUSTOM INTERIOR SHOWS AS NEW! GOOD QUALITY HARD TOP WITH WHITE LINER. MECHANICALLY THE CAR DRIVES WONDERFULLY.  UPGRADED RADIO, BUT THE ORIGINAL RADIO GOES WITH THE CAR & WORKED WHEN IT CAME OUT.  12 VOLT CONVERSION, TELESCOPIC STEERING WHEEL, ALL GUAGES AND DASH COMPONENTS WORK. SOLID UNDERCARRIAGE.  THIS ONE HAS NOT BEEN CUT UP WITH NO REPLACEMENT BODY PANELS AND NO VISIBLE RUST. THIS IS A NATIVE TEXAS CAR THAT HAS BEEN STORED, AND HAS NOT BEEN EXPOSED TO THE WEATHER ELEMENTS OF SALT, ETC.  I HAVE DOCUMENTATION THAT TRACES THE OWNERSHIP BACK TO 1970 IN SAN ANTONIO, AND BELIEVED TO BE AN ORIGINAL SAN ANTONIO VEHICLE.  I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 1991 FROM A LADY IN SAN ANTONIO.. THE 1990 TEXAS SAFETY INSPECTION STICKER IS STILL ON THE WINDSHIELD (SEE PHOTOS). THE BODY WAS STRIPPED DOWN TO THE METAL AND RE-PAINTED WHEN IT WAS RESTORED, AND I HAVE PHOTOS SHOWING THE PROCESS. OLDER RESTORATION, BUT STILL PRESENTS BEAUTIFULLY SINCE ONLY 9,000 MILES SINCE IT WAS RESTORED.  PHOTOS REVEAL QUALITY OF THE BODY WITH VERY LITTLE BONDO. HARD TOP IS ALSO IN GOOD SHAPE AS IS THE HEADLINER.  THE ENGINE, MUNCIE 4 SPEED TRANSMISSION, AND CLUTCH HAVE APPROX. 4,000 MILES ON THEM SINCE BEING REBUILT BY A LOCALLY REPUTABLE PERFORMANCE SHOP IN 2001.  ENGINE COMPARTMENT SHOWS NICELY WITH THE "ENGINE DRESS UP KIT", INCLUDING CHROME RADIATOR SHROUD AND CHROME HEATER CORE.  ALL RECEIPTS AND VEHICLE HISTORY GO WITH THE CAR.  THE CAR IS NOT PERFECT, BUT A VERY PRESENTABLE REPRESENTATION OF A 60 YEAR OLD VEHICLE THAT HAS BEEN LIGHTLY USED AND WELL MAINTAINED.  AS WITH MOST OLDER VEHICLES, THE CAR LEAKS A LITTLE OIL. THERE IS A SCRATCH ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD THAT APPEARS TO BE FROM A WIPER BLADE.  IT WAS THERE WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 1991. JUST NEVER HAD THE WINDSHIELD REPLACED, AS I CONSIDERED MINOR. 

CAR IS SOLD "AS IS, WHERE IS". SHIPPING IS UP TO THE BUYER TO ARRANGE, AT BUYER'S COST.
