Various suspension and braking components are said to have been replaced following the seller’s acquisition of the vehicle. A full-size spare wheel and tire are mounted to the rear bumper. The door handles and additional trim pieces are missing.Ĭhrome-finished 15″ wire wheels were installed under current ownership and wear 205/75 Coker American Classic tires. Exterior features include an egg crate-style grille, a hood scoop, and fender-mounted cabin air vents. The car left the factory finished in Buckskin Tan (J), and the seller states that the body was stripped down to bare metal, placed on a rotisserie, and refinished in its current shade of red under current ownership. This Thunderbird project is offered at no reserve with a removed chassis plate, a white hardtop, a red top boot, a collection of spare parts, partial service records, and a clean California title assigned to the seller’s business. The car also features a three-speed manual transmission with overdrive as well as a Holley four-barrel carburetor, a hood scoop, and 15″ wire wheels including a full-size spare. Subsequent work is said to have involved repainting the body, reupholstering the bench seat, rebuilding the 312ci Y-block V8, and replacing various suspension and braking components. This 1956 Ford Thunderbird is a non-running project that was acquired by the seller in June 2008.
