1956 Ford Thunderbird Red Convertible

Why This Car Is Special

The Ford Thunderbird was a rear wheel drive automobile which was manufactured by Ford in the United States over eleven model generations from 1955 through 2005. The Thunderbird created a market niche that eventually became known as the personal luxury car.

We have a restored 1956 Ford Thunderbird here at Skyway Classics that is in gorgeous red with the two-tone red/white interior trim, Continental Kit on the rear, and the red Porthole hardtop.

The chassis underneath is painted and detailed to look as nice as the rest of the car too.
