Up for auction is a beautiful 1955 Ford Thunderbird Roadster convertible in astonishing restored condition. I am representing this car for the owner that is not the most astute on the computer who also travels a lot so to the best of my knowledge and that I have been briefed on will be detailed as precisely as can be. I have examined the car and driven it as well.
The car is actual color GOLDEN ROD YELLOW with coordinating interior in as new condition. The dash board condition, drop panel behind the seats, door panels, and carpeting are excellent condition. As you can see, there is a beautiful original HARDTOP that comes with the car in beautiful black that offsets the GoldenRod Yellow ideally. There is the hardtop only, no soft top.
All of the mechanical have been done from the new battery to the brakes. There are pictures of the underside that shows the frame and panels as original in excellent condition. Try to find a more solid 1955 would be a real choir and to restore one to this standard with new sheet metal very expensive. Look closely at the multitude of pictures and realize that to find a rare GoldenRod Yellow Thunderbird of this originality and quality would be difficult at best. This car has the typical Ford neutral safety switch tempermental problem where it has to be started in the neutral position. Everything works as designed and is ready for show and go, just winning trophies. Bid with confidence as it is truly a nice, very originally solid car, has a very desirable color combo, and drives well.

The history and future of the Ford Bronco
Tue, 17 Jun 2014
Some have suggested that the Bronco's demise was hastened by the fallout from the O.J. trial.
Twenty years ago today, ex-NFL linebacker Al "A.C." Cowlings drove his friend and onetime running back Orenthal James "O.J." Simpson on a parade lap of the Los Angeles highway system and onto an ignoble page of the history books. If you're in your late 20s or older, or a fastidious young student of 1990s American history, you're absolutely aware that Al and O.J.'s steed for the 'chase' was a white Ford Bronco. The white Ford Bronco, even.
First retail 2015 Ford Mustang headed to Barrett-Jackson
Fri, 20 Dec 2013Want to be the very first person to own a 2015 Ford Mustang GT? Here's what you'll need to do: be in Scottsdale, AZ on January 18 for the Barrett-Jackson auction and bring a very big checkbook. Having a passion for charity isn't a bad idea either.
Yes, the first 2015 Mustang to be sold to the public will be crossing the block at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, with proceeds from the auction going to JDRF, the charity formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
"Ford Mustangs have always been among the most popular collector cars at Barrett-Jackson Collector Car events," said the president of Barrett-Jackson, Steve Davis. "While every collector wishes they had snapped up the first Mustang sold in 1964, this is an opportunity to realize that dream in a different way."
Alan Mulally talks about why Ford's Falcon had to die
Tue, 20 Aug 2013When Ford made the decision to end production of the Falcon sedan and Territory CUV in Australia, it wasn't a popular move Down Under. The large, four-door Falcon had been in production for 50 years, and while Ford has reaffirmed its commitment to the Australian market, it's understandable that some people still aren't all that crazy about the Blue Oval's decision.
Speaking to CEO Alan Mulally after Ford's Go Further event in Sydney, Australian site Go Auto reports that the decision was not one made lightly, and that the automaker is doing everything possible to respect the Falcon and Territory's "stakeholders." It's an interesting piece that shows a softer side of a corporation, while demonstrating that Ford is doing everything in its power to make the end of production as smooth as possible for all parties.
Head over to Go Auto for the full series of remarks from Mulally, and then let us know what you think of Ford's handling of the Falcon and Territory discontinuations, in Comments.
