For Sale: 1955 Ford Thunderbird in Sarasota, Florida for sale in Sarasota, FL
Vehicle Description 1955 Ford Thunderbird 2dr Convertible The now-famous 1955 Ford Thunderbird's origins came from the 1953 Ford Vega concept (not to be confused with the GM product of the 1970s).
Ford's Vega was a one-off, but generated some interest, which moved it from concept to reality as Ford's stylish two-seater offering for the budding sporty two-seater market.
The Thunderbird was a more dignified, personal luxury cruiser.
It had roll-up windows and standard V-8 power.
Other features included a removable fiberglass top, a fabric convertible top, and fender skirts for the rear wheels.
There was one engine for the first 1955 T-Birds, and it was the 292 cid Y-Block V-8 fitted with a single four-barrel carburetor.
With the standard 3-speed manual transmission, this engine made 193 horsepower.
The exhaust pipes for the Thunderbird were integrated into the rear fascia and above the rear bumper, giving it an unmistakable Jet-Age look.
