1957 Ford Thunderbird

This 57 Thunderbird has undergone an elaborate, frame off, two year,every nut and bolt restoration. Engine rebuilt by renowned engine builder Ronnie Groff in San Antonio, Texas. It's covered about 250 miles since its completion in 2011. Aproximately 15 milesin the last three years. Registration is current but it's never been off the airport where I've kept it ina climate controlled hangar. It drives and stopsstraight and runs beautifully. Everything works, including the original (restored)clock. I won't go into all the wonderful details of an E Code but they were produced in very limited numbers (977) and even fewer with the manual transmission with overdrive (280). Beautiful Kelsey-Hayes chrome wire wheels with new Firestone Champion Wide Whitewall tires. (7.5 x 14 as originally equipt) Rear fender skirts included but not shown. Powder coated frame and undercarriage. Port hole delete option, Master-Guide power steering, Swift-Sure power brakes. 312 ci. V-8 producing 270 hp. Gorgeous Raven Black exterior and complete new black and white interior. No soft top but a full tonneau cover is included. Hagerty valuation is$175,000 for a condition 1 car and $110,000 for one in condition 2. This car is clearly a very strong #2 and is priced accordingly @ $115,000.00.
