One of the great rewards of owning a first generation Thunderbird is that many people admit that they are simply proud to be seen in this American classic. 1957 was the final year for the original generation two-passenger Thunderbird. In 1958, it would accommodate four passengers. This ’57 is a beautiful example of the Ford Thunderbird D-Code. Imported from the USA in 2018 with only one owner in Sweden.
