The 1955 Ford Thunderbird - Tradition, Luxury and Performance
From its looks, to the numbers sold world-wide and the niche it created (personal luxury cars), the 1955 Ford
Thunderbird is a landmark in the history of automobiles. It is most certainly not a model to be taken lightly and
considered as just another old car. The Thunderbird was designed as a response to the Chevrolet Corvette, which was released just a month before. It was a huge
commercial hit, with millions of units sold. In this respect, it surpassed the Corvette by far.
Unlike the Corvette, the Thunderbird was advertised as a personal car, not a sports car. And the personal car
eventually came to be known as the luxury personal car. Thank you again Ford for your contribution to the
world!
This representative of the 1955 Ford Thunderbird is in tip top shape, being recently acquired from a private museum
in Greece, where it has spent 15 years as an exhibit piece.
No effort or expense was spared when instilling life back into the vehicle, and now this Thunderbird just needs the
right owner to make good use of its abilities. The 4.8 litre V8 engine under the hood can produce a top speed of
150 mph. For the times when it was released on the market, this was a very high speed, and still is even today.
Although the 4-headlamp trend was beginning to form, it would take another four years For Ford to adapt to it.
Therefore, the ’55 model has only 2 round headlamps, giving the car a sleek aspect. At that time, the design of the
car was something quite different from what Ford had ever done. In a way, this contributed to the overwhelming
popularity of 1955 Ford Thunderbird.
