Fordâs final offering of the first-generation Thunderbird in 1957 is considered by many auto enthusiasts to be a fitting close to the companyâs end of two-seat passenger cars.
Aided by an extended sales period due to delays in the production of the 1958 model, Ford sold 21,380 units of the car many credit for creating the personal luxury
car market we still have today. The 1957 models featured redesigned front and rear bumpers, doors and rear fenders as well as new tail lights and instrument panel. There were also new upholstery designs for the seat and door panels. There were four engine options for the 1957 Thunderbird, engine all based on Fordâs Y-block V8.
The 292 cubic inch (C code) was standard equipment, while a higher displacement 312 cubic inch powerplant with a single four-barrel carburetor (D code) was the most popular choice on the order form. There were 1,499 Thunderbirds equipped with a 312 cubic inch engine that featured two four-barrel carbs (E code) and just 188 units were built with the coveted supercharged
312 cubic inch engine (F code). Both the E code and f code cars are significantly rare, as their combined sales account for just less than eight percent of total production.
This car is one of the 1,499 F code cars built for the 1957 model year, built in Fordâs Dearborn (MI) assembly plant on December 13, 1956. The trim tag data indicated the car left the factory in Flame Red with a matching Flame Red interior, while the carâs VIN proves the car was built with the 272 horsepower E code powerplant.
