Whilst the Grand Tourer rage was all over Europe in the Fifties, Ford decided to bring it over to North America. In doing so, they created the segment known as the Personal Luxury Car when they introduced the Thunderbird line-up in 1955. The Thunderbird was hugely successful, and was produced over ten generations from 1955 to 1997, and an eleventh generation briefly ran between 2002 and 2005. What we’ve got here is a 1968 Ford Thunderbird Coupe from the fifth generation of the nameplate. This Florida-based car has a healthy 106,754 miles under its wheels, but you wouldn’t be able to tell from the pictures, as it’s been very well looked after.
1967 saw the fifth-generation Thunderbird debut, with dramatically changed styling that some called radical at the time. It also pushed the size of the car further, making it larger in overall dimensions, and was even offered as a four-door pillared hardtop. This 1968 Ford Thunderbird Coupe is a two-door that wears a timeless white paint job and rolls on hubcapped wheels with new Nexen tires. Up front, it’s not hard to notice the hidden headlamps that were a head-turner in the day, and still make passers-by do a double take. The seller reports that this car has faced no accidents, and all seams and body panels are straight. The black interior offers accommodations for four occupants on plush leather seats, with a wood-trimmed dash and two-spoke steering wheel. This car is also equipped with air conditioning, which the seller reports, has received a new compressor and hoses. The interior looks to be mostly in pristine condition, save for a few minor imperfections that can easily be rectified.
The fifth-generation Thunderbird came with a choice of three engines during its four-year production run, and this 1968 Ford Thunderbird Coupe enjoys the largest of them all, the 429ci (7.0L) V8. This engine was rated at 360hp, but many claim this was a conservative figure. With this engine, the Thunderbird was quite quick off the line, despite its larger dimensions and porkier weight as a result. Drive is sent to the rear wheels via a 3-speed Ford Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission. The seller reports that this car has received a front end alignment, new master cylinder, new brake booster and new belts.

There comes a time when the automotive world stands still as manufacturers churn out a car that takes the world by storm and changes the automotive landscape forever. Turn back the clock to the ’50s and Ford did just that with the release of the legendary Ford Thunderbird. From its iconic design to its performance, the Ford Thunderbird was a looker and a performance machine that helped the ’50s American automotive marketplace turn it up a notch. Present today is this lovely 1956 Ford Thunderbird. This ’50s American automotive icon has a reported 13,293 miles on the clock and looks factory fresh and ready for its new custodian.
The Ford Thunderbird is a personal luxury car made by Ford across ten generations between 1955 and 1997. A retro-modern homage briefly made an appearance between 2002 and 2005. The Thunderbird was created for Ford to offer a car that enabled comfortable, luxurious and smooth long-distance touring for two adults and their luggage. Soon enough, though, Ford realized that adding a rear seat would broaden the appeal of the T-Bird. If you’d been intrigued as to what a T-Bird is like to own and drive, check out this classic third-generation 1963 Ford Thunderbird that’s for sale right now. Coming from Washington, this car has journeyed for 81,839 miles so far.
Ford’s Thunderbird was a trailblazer in the ʼ50s and '60s. Envisioned to bring Americans a slice of that luxury grand touring lifestyle that Europeans were enjoying, the T-Bird as it was affectionately called, started life as a two-seater. Over time, it gained a rear seat as well, since Ford realized that some people liked to take their children along too, plus a rear seat meant that the car was better suited to regular family life. Ten generations of T-Bird graced our roads between 1955 and 1997. In 2002, Ford decided to create a homage, and the eleventh generation was made. This 2002 Ford Thunderbird Deluxe is one of those cars, and with just 31,368 units made for 2002, you’re part of a pretty exclusive club now. You see, the eleventh generation is poised to become a future classic, so this 28,475-mile car is a savvy investment too.
When you see the iconic Shelby branding and cobra motif on a Mustang, you know that the outfit formed by the legendary Carroll Shelby has been working their magic. For decades, Shelby Mustangs have ruled the tracks and drag strips, showing what a Mustang can be turned into when given suitable performance modifications. Shelby works with Ford and hence you can consider these to be factory-endorsed machines. In fact, the fifth generation, from which this 2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Convertible hails, was sold by Ford. This car has got only 9,000 miles on it, making it a superb buy for a Mustang aficionado. It’s also a fantastic future investment and a definitive classic in years to come.
Ford’s popular F-Series that is available today and in the fourteenth generation, was born in 1948. It was aimed at mobilizing American small businessholders, farmers and those engaged in trade. For the first generation, the range started with the F-1 which was a half-ton pickup truck. It had a 6.5-foot cargo bed, and sat at just 189 inches long; shorter than many full-size luxury cars of today. Over time, the F-1 has become a cherished classic and a symbol of American freedom – because it allowed you to take your family to market, with your goods for sale in the truck bed. This particular 1950 Ford F-1 Custom Build is a little different, as it’s a restomod with a host of upgrades. Residing in California and having just 13,367 miles since its rebuild, this truck is ideal for someone who wants classic style tastefully combined with modern features and performance.
The Ford F-Series came in 1948, and has continued uninterrupted to this day. Fourteen generations have been made, and it’s one of the longest-running nameplates in American automotive history. This 1956 Ford F-100 comes from the second generation of the series and has been subjected to a full frame-off restoration effort. With a V8 and plenty of attention paid to bring it to near-factory condition, this is a great classic truck for the discerning collector, as well as first-time collector alike. Since it’s seen just 328 miles of driving post-restoration, you’ll basically be its first owner, in a way!
