Not only a very desirable (and iconic ) make and model in its homeland but also further afield. The first-generation Ford Thunderbird stands out on its own. The 57’ is the last year of manufacture for the first generation and is very well-respected model.
Let’s break down this vehicle’s serial number to give you a better understanding of what we’ve got…
Serial Number: D7FH297948:
D = Engine Code indicating 312 Special V8 equipped with 4-barrel carburetor producing 245 horsepower.
7 = Model year 1957.
F = Assembly plant – the vehicle was built at Ford’s Dearborn plant, Michigan USA.
H = Body style – denotes 2 door Thunderbird Convertible.
297948 = The specific sequential production serial number assigned to the car at the factory.
This one tick’s all the boxes…street appeal, condition, 312V8, automatic, appears to be matching numbers, airconditioned, front disc brakes, fender skirts, port holes, and the lid come’s off making it a very sporty convertible when desired.
If you’re looking for an eye catching, turnkey car then look no further…this is the one.
