GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1958 Ford Thunderbird Convertible for purchase. The 1st generation Thunderbird was a success outselling the Corvette. It was a personal luxury car (when there really wasn't such a thing) that was a 2-seat roadster, but Ford felt the sales could be even better. The 2nd generation (starting in 1958) would see the Thunderbird grow to 4-seats and offer a hardtop coupe. While such a dramatic change would have doom written all over it, the sales actually took off and grew at a time when almost all other American vehicles didn't.
In 1958, Thunderbirds were produced to almost 38,000 units rolling off the showrooms. However, only 2,134 were convertibles which seems extra odd that the first generation were only roadsters.
This '58 Thunderbird is absolutely concourse condition with tons of curb appeal in Monarch Blue. It's offered for sale for the first time by the current owner since 1982.It originally was purchased in Kansas City, Missouri before being brought to Michigan. It underwent a full professional restoration in 2007 bringing the car beyond show quality cosmetically and mechanically. It's powered by the correct 352ci V8 engine and Ford-O-Matic (automatic) transmission. It also features the chrome dress-up kit, power convertible top, power steering, power brakes, and much more! This car looks similar, although possibly in better condition, than the ones rolling off the showroom floors in 1958. Close inspection just makes you fall in love with this rare collector piece more and more! Please call or email for more details!
