Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this sharp 1955
Ford Thunderbird. One of the most beautiful pieces of Americana,
they were considered to be direct competition to the Chevrolet
Corvette. Helping spawn a new generation of automobiles in the
United States, and aimed to take on the European market, the Ford
Thunderbird was powered by a 292 CID V8, which gave the already
smaller, lighter car the power it needed to make for both an
excellent road racer as well as the perfect car for older couples
to sit back and enjoy a movie at the drive-in. Mated to the engine
is a 2-speed automatic transmission, which allowed the car for
fairly smooth shifting, but in the higher gear allowed the vehicle
to cruise at highway speeds without drinking too much gas. The
interior of this car is a beautiful red and white two tone seating,
with red carpets throughout. The hard-top is painted in white to
give the car a two-tone look. Take the top off to enjoy the
beautiful weather in absolute style! The exterior is painted to
match the interior, with a stunning bright red paint job with a new
black top that really gives the car a high quality 1950's kind of
feel. Driving a 1955 Ford Thunderbird is truly an experience one
simply cannot explain, these cars are the truest form of Americana
one can find. Options include AM Radio, Hub Caps, Seat Belts, Vinyl
Interior, Wide White Walls, Wire Wheels, Power Steering, Power
Brakes and Power seat. Do not miss out on this beauty! To see this
