Styling of late-1950’s cars had reached a peak and nearly all manufacturers were sporting fins, art deco design, and enough chrome to sink a ship! This would be the last year of the famous 2-seater roadster for the next 45 years! They are highly prized in collections around the world for the stunning good looks! This beautiful 1957 Ford Thunderbird is now finished in Starmist Blue with White interior “XK”. Powered by the reliable 312ci 4bbl V8 and Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission, it offers a powerful 245 horsepower! It is fitted with Master-Guide power steering, telescopic steering column, front disc brakes with dual master cylinder, working original Town & Country Volumatic AM radio, heater/defrost, added seatbelts, windshield washer, matching porthole hardtop & white vinyl soft top, back-up lights, and electronic clock. Complete with fender skirts, brand new 14x5” Kelsey Hayes chrome wire spoke wheels with whitewall tires, polished engine dress-up kit, this Thunderbird is as wonderful to admire as it is to drive! It was recently serviced to include a complete new power front disc brake conversion with vented rotors, new calipers, stainless steel brake lines, new FOMOCO radiator & heater hoses, belts, spark plugs & wires, distributor cap and rotor, all fluids (coolant, oil, power steering, transmission), new shocks, air filter, newer complete exhaust, and 5 brand new wide whitewall radial tires! This car received a very impressive, recent restoration of the exterior paint and interior carpet and embossed logo upholstery. Even the trunk was professionally finished with all new matting! Mechanically, the car received much attention under hood both in looks and tuning, so it runs very well! It is also wonderfully detailed throughout! The body and frame are in very good, original shape showing no signs of any rust or rust repair. The original VIN stamp on the forward, passenger frame rail is in perfect condition. The chrome and exterior bright work are all in great condition making this both a wonderful investment for shows, and weekend cruising! It will come complete with owner’s manual, an original brochure, and tire changing equipment.
