The '50s was surely iconic. The cars, the music and the vibes were ones never to be relieved. Looking to experience or relive the magical time? Present today is this 1957 Ford Thunderbird. It's a '50s classic that ensures an original driving experience and looks that make you turn back as you park.
Ford’s T-Bird brought Americans a slice of the European Grand Tourer lifestyle. These luxury cars were initially two seaters with powerful engines and the best luxury and technological features of their time. They were designed to be owned and driven by the wealthy, and capable of crossing the country while imparting the least fatigue upon their occupants. If you’ve always had a soft spot for a T-Bird, this first-generation 1957 Ford Thunderbird is a fine catch. Coming to you with under 35,000 miles on the clock, we’re told that this car is just 1 of 68 produced in the beautiful color that you see in these photos. That fact, plus its original mileage and up-to-date servicing make it a fine classic car that’s a shrewd investment too.
The first-generation Thunderbird was introduced in 1954 as Ford’s answer to the Chevy Corvette that came out the year before. To call it a direct competitor of the Vette would, however, be inaccurate. While the Corvette was a small and lightweight 2-seater with a fiberglass body (to compete with European sports cars), the T-Bird was more of a 2-seater personal luxury car for a younger demographic of buyers (being smaller and lighter than most Detroit products at the time). In fact, in its first production year, it outsold the Corvette by a massive margin. In total, over 53,000 first-generation Thunderbirds were made in 3 years of production, with 1957 being the most successful year.
We’ve seen a lot of cool vintage Ford Broncos brought back to glory with modern amenities. While many people restore their own Broncos, there are numerous companies that offer their own unique approach to updating and restoring these vehicles. This staggering example of the 1969 Ford Bronco is one such car that has had a frame-off restoration completed in 2017. Reportedly, it only has 70,000 miles on its rebuilt engine. It offers you the advantages of contemporary components and is outfitted with everything you need to go off-road.
Ford's fourth iteration of the iconic pony car is the SN95 Mustang. It was manufactured from 1994 to 2004 and sometimes goes by the name Fox-4 Mustang. S stands for small, specialty vehicle, N stands for North American Operations, and 95 is the sequence number of approved vehicle projects. Ford engineers and designers completely restyled both the interior and exterior of the Mustang for the fourth generation. Enthusiasts who have owned them for years love them for how reliable and easy to work on they are. So purchasing this 1995 Ford Mustang Restomod will definitely bring power and cheer into your life. This beastly machine is track-ready and waits in California to become your track-day darling.
This 2017 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R with just under 11,000 Miles on the odometer is a perfect example of the company's ingenuity. Rear wheel drive, a manual transmission, and a big fat V8 up front. Ford has been producing the Mustang for 60 years, so you’d think their formula is working rather well.
The second-generation Chevrolet Corvette (C2) is where the legendary Corvette inherited its sharp lines and looks that are still used to this day. This new design over the first-generation Corvette did not only present itself with a spectacular view but also newfound handling prowess. The new lighter body meant this convertible found more acceleration than its predecessor, even though the power remained the same and the new suspension significantly improved handling. All the 1963 cars came out with 372 ci engines, making 250 horsepower as standard, with optional variants like this particular restored model we have for you today, which can produce a whopping 340 horsepower. All this excitement for the second-generation Corvette resulted in an increase of 50% in units built compared to the then-record-setting 1962 version. This made the C2 an automotive icon of the past and present. We’re told that this 1963 convertible American beauty, for sale in Rosamond, California, has only done less than 1000 miles on the odometer after restoration. The current owner also reports that the numbers are matching for the motor and transmission, however documentation cannot be provided.
The Chevrolet Impala has played the role of the Bowtie’s flagship full-size car for years. Produced over ten generations, the Impala was first introduced in 1957. Named after the eponymous African antelope, the first generation was strictly a two-door affair. Buyers could choose a coupe or convertible. If you’d like to own a classic Impala but with a bit more pep up and go, this 1958 Chevrolet Impala is a worthy contender. The car comes with an upgraded engine, but remains otherwise stock as far as possible. That makes it a lovely classic car to own and drive, but something to surprise other classics with when the mood strikes.
One of the most popular classic cars is the Chevy Bel Air. Introduced in 1950 and named after the stylish Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles, the Bel Air was Chevy’s full-size offering until 1981. Today, the Bel Air has proved itself to be a worthy classic, as well as an excellent restomod platform. Take this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Coupe Restomod as a prime example. The car has undergone a full restoration, which was concluded in December 2020. Moreover, it’s got a more potent engine with just 4,000 miles on it, plus some interior and exterior niceties.
