Here is a beautiful, classic 1957 2-seater Ford Thunderbird with a strong running 312 cc V-8 engine, automatic transmission, air conditioning, power steering, original hubcaps and fender skirts, and two tops - a matching Colonial White hardtop with portholes, and a black cloth top.  The engine was rebuilt in 1997 (with new valves, hardened valve seats, etc.), soon after I bought the car, and power brakes were added; I later upgraded the brake system further to include front disc brakes.  The car was stripped to bare metal and repainted its code-correct Colonial White in 1999; I have included a few photos of the repaint process.   I replaced the non-working original Thunderbird AM radio with a new Thunderbird AM/FM radio with cassette.  The original code-correct black-and-white interior is clean and in great shape.  New parts and improvements:  fuel line, radial white-wall tires, weatherstripping, springs, voltage regulator, water pump, battery, exhaust system with resonators, expanded radiator, shocks, 6-blade fan and more!  The car runs and drives fine and has always been garaged.  Title is clear.  The odometer reading on the title, when I bought the car in 1997, was 124095, so it has only been driven about 16,000 miles since I bought it, and a bit less since the engine work was done.  I have all the bills and receipts for work done, parts purchased, etc., and will include the Thunderbird Shop Manual in the sale.   I have had lots of Fun, Fun, Fun with this great car over the years, but now it is time to make room in the garage for something else.

A deposit of $750 is required within 72 hours of the end of the auction, with full payment of balance expected within 7 days of end of auction by certified check.  It is the buyer's responsibility to arrange pick up and transportation of the vehicle.
