This 1955 Ford Thunderbird Roadster , offered by the Vault Classic Cars dealership, is a beautiful car with great options! 292 V-8 and engine dress-up kit, Power Brakes, Power seat, and Power windows! Tachometer, AM Radio, and Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission and convertible top!
It’s in excellent condition, it runs and drives great, and it’s a fun, reasonably priced way to enjoy 2 seat open air motoring at it’s finest!
.
The ’55 T-Bird was a beautiful car, influenced by the European sports cars of the era as well as the Jet Age that had just begun!
.
The wrap-around windshield, and the hood scoop are great features!
.
Nicely done in Raven Black – color code “A”, original color for this car ! And the bodywork is very nice and straight.
.
Lovely Chrome and stainless accents the Raven Black beautifully.
.
This car runs great – the 292 V-8 is smooth and has plenty of power, the brakes are brand new, and the car operates as it should !
.
We can see in this photo the tire tread is excellent, they’re Firestone whitewalls.
.
Nice !
.
Lovely interior, with new correct upholstery, a beautiful dashboard, and a gorgeous steering wheel.
.
Here’s a Video of the car in operation!
.
Wow! The interior is beautiful! Note the telescoping steering column and the floor mounted automatic shift quadrant.
.
The interior is not only beautiful, but it gives us a look at the great styling – the wrap-around engine turned band that ties the whole design together, the clear back-lit speedometer face, and the tachometer and clock flanking the guage cluster. It’s just fun to look at !
.
Lets look closer – perfectly clear lenses and vibrant gauge stencils, awesome steering wheel, perfectly clear steering wheel plastic and emblem – it all speaks of a car that was nicely restored!
.
Of course there are no cracks in that dashboard!
.
Excellent doorpanel. Note the Power Seat control is the upper set of switches. The power windows are the lower set of switches. Seat and windows work great in all directions!
.
Right side doorpanel.
.
there’s the 292 V-8, nice, clean, correct and running great! It’s all stock and correct, including the correct size 6 volt battery.
.
those finned Thunderbird valvecovers are the greatest!
.
Clean!
.
Underhood is clean too.
.
Code “A” is for Raven black.
.
Nice convertible top with the chrome band at the header. It’s nice and clean.
.
Nice clear window plastic, with a few distortions from being stored in the “down” position. the top has some wrinkles from storage also.
.
Top fits nice and tight.
.
Nice top bows and inner top.
.
Top bows as they should be. You’ll note there is NOT a hardtop with this car.
.
Beautiful tailight lenses and chrome. The only chrome on the car that looks a little older is the rear bumper bar – maybe still original chrome? Otherwise the plating on this car is bright and beautiful.
.
Although the paint is very nice, it does show a bit of age – this corner of the hood / cowl was obviously touched up, and there are some scratches / chips here and there.
.
Here’s a touch-up on the nose of the car. It’s not a show car, but it’s still very, very nice, and it’s obvious that the original restoration was done very well indeed.
.
.
Nice! Note that the tailpipes run through the “jet port” bumperguard. More Jet-Age styling !
.
Excellent hubcaps and emblems!
.
Nice trunk and whitewall spare!
.
Nicely done inner trunk.
.
Clean California title and plates.
.
The seat folds forward so the top mechanism can emerge.
.
Automatic transmission – a very desirable feature in a T-Bird!
.
