I HAVE UP FOR AUCTION A VERY NICE 1955 FORD THUNDERBIRD WITH IT'S ORIGINAL 292 V8 MOTOR,  TRANSMISSION AND CARBURETOR. IT HAS BOTH A HARDTOP AND SOFT TOP, IT HAS POWER STEERING, POWER SEATS AND POWER WINDOWS.  IT COMES WITH RECORDS GOING BACK TO 1985 WHEN IT HAD 93,950 MILES, IT NOW SHOWS 97,077 MILES.   THE CAR HAS HAD EXTENSIVE WORK OVER THE YEARS WITH VERY FEW MILES PUT ON THE CAR SINCE COMPLETION.

THE POWER WINDOWS WORK, POWER SEATS MOVE FORWARD AND BACKWARD, THE POWER STEERING PUMP HAS JUST BEEN REPLACED AND SHOW DETAILED.

THE PAINT IS NICE DRIVER QUALITY, IT HAS A NICE SOLID RUST FREE BODY. THE CAR DRIVES VERY NICELY, NICE TIGHT STEERING, VERY SMOOTH RIDE AND SOUNDS GREAT!  LOT'S OF FUN TO DRIVE AND NUMEROUS COMPLIMENTS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT.  I RECENTLY NOTICED THAT THE POWER STEERING RACK SEALS ARE LEAKING A LITLLE BUT NOT BAD. THERE ARE SOME CHIPS ON THE DRIVERS DOOR EDGE BETWEEN THE FENDER AND DOOR THAT HAVE BEEN TOUCHED UP. THE DOOR HAS BEEN ALIGNED AT SOMETIME AND DOES NOT RUB THE FENDER NOW.
