History of the Thunderbird:



      You still see two-seat 1956 Ford Thunderbirds on the boulevards of Beverly Hills, which is only fitting. Ford might have been inspired by European sports cars, but the Thunderbird ended up an all-American boulevardier convertible designed for comfort and smooth, powerful straightline performance. That the "Little Birds" were also uncommonly handsome only hastened their climb to "instant classic" status, one reason so many survive today.

      A sturdy steel body and amenities like roll-up windows were other appealing T-Bird virtues. As proof, the debut ’55 outpolled Chevrolet’s fiberglass Corvette by 23 to 1 at 16,155 units. The ’56 slipped to 15,631, but that was hardly bad for a specialty car in a "fall-back" sales year.



      The ’56 T-Bird was much like the ’55, but a standard "continental" spare tire opened up needed trunk space, front-fender ventilator doors enhanced cockpit comfort, and the available lift-off hardtop gained distinctive "porthole" windows that helped visibility. Typical of the time, the ’56 also offered more power, courtesy of a new 312-cubic-inch V-8 packing 215 horsepower with optional stick-overdrive or 225 with self-shift Fordomatic. The previous year’s 292 continued with the standard three-speed manual, but was upped to 202 bhp. Handling took a step backward, as springs and shocks were softened, but buyers loved the resulting smoother ride.
