4747-TPA 1957 FORD THUNDERBIRD E CODE This 1957 Ford Thunderbird E Code sports the coveted 312 V8 with dual four-barrel carburetors - a powerhouse configuration that set it apart in its day. The Colonial White exterior gleams, accentuated by chrome details that define the T-Bird's iconic silhouette. Rolling on 14-inch wheels with 205/75R14 Coker whitewall tires and Thunderbird hubcaps, this classic exudes 1950s style. A removable hardtop with porthole windows adds versatility, while dual exhausts exit through the rear bumper for a sleek look. Inside, the original trim code XA pairs Pleated Raven Vinyl with Pleated Colonial Vinyl, creating a bold black and white interior. Power seats and windows offer modern convenience in a vintage package. The factory style R12 air conditioning keeps things cool during summer cruises. The dashboard showcases crisp gauges and controls, preserving the authentic 1950s aesthetic. An AM/FM radio awaits your choice of restoration or upgrade to complete the audio experience. The 312 cubic inch V8 engine is the centerpiece of this Thunderbird's appeal. With its E-Code dual four-barrel carburetor setup, it produced an impressive 270 horsepower when new. The Ford-O-Matic 3-speed automatic transmission delivers power smoothly to the rear wheels. The engine bay showcases all factory-ordered options, including power steering and power brakes, in excellent condition. A comprehensive frame-off restoration completed in 2002 by Classic Automotive Restoration Specialists in Belews Creek, NC, has maintained this T-Bird's mechanical integrity.
