Well-Maintained Ford Thunderbird Hardtop
New to our Pleasanton showroom is this highly impressive 1957 Ford Thunderbird 2 Door Roadster with light blue exterior paint, a matching blue/white interior and an iconic matching blue removable hardtop. This super-desirable roadster features a 312 cid V-8 engine under the hood with an automatic transmission, and it presents nicely with a super-clean interior, engine bay and exterior. This classic is being offered at a very conservative asking price as well and it is ready to be driven and enjoyed right away by the next owner.
An Older Restoration in Very Nice Overall Condition
The current owner of this 1957 Ford Thunderbird Roadster inherited the classic from his father and believes that it’s been in the family since around 2003. Unfortunately, there is very little documentation on this vehicle so the information we can provide is purely on an up-close inspection. It appears to be an older restoration that was completed at very high levels, with very straight body lines that show the proper alignment all the way around. The paint is also in above average condition; not perfect, but not really far off either. There are minimal scratches, dings, etc. and this classic looks excellent in person as a high end driver.
Additionally, this 1957 Ford Thunderbird Roadster appears to have the correct removable hardtop with the iconic port hole windows, plus a vinyl soft top in white. The engine compartment shows a correct, no-frills drivetrain that could potentially be original- we do not know either way.
Must See- A Fantastic Value at the Current Asking Price
Overall, this highly desirable 1957 Ford Thunderbird 2 Door Roadster w/ Removable Hardtop is in very nice condition and it will likely appeal to a wide variety of collectors due to the conservative asking price. Come see this beautiful roadster for yourself today!

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
