DY31 1955 Ford Thunderbird

Post by Wolfie Ginsburg »

And now, an American classic


There are two versions of the red 'Bird with degrees of decoration - I only have one on display - the other is packed away so I can't illustrate the difference

Image

The Thunderbird was then fitted with a hard-top and issued as DYG08

Image

and with another colour roof and a Thunderbird logo on the boot (or should I say trunk?)


Image

Then as part of the Coca Cola series


Image


Why not exploit a good seller? The Thundertbird was reissued again as DYM92542

Image

and then, sold in a tin, DY92692

We made a club car with the TBird a few years ago. It turned out nice.
