1955 Ford Thunderbird

Jack Lemmon was the well-meaning insecure middle-aged man who could end up in the most ridiculous or comic situations. A tremendous career with 65 Movies and 8 Oscars! He came on to the movie scene in 1954 in "It Should Happen to You" and received an Oscar a year later for "Mister Roberts". A few of his most noted movies include: "Some Like It Hot" (1959) with Tony Curtis was the greatest drag comedy of all-time, "The Odd Couple" (1968) with Walter Matthau, was two opposite personalities sharing the same apartment, "Grumpy Old Men" (1971) also with Walter Matthau, as feuding neighbors! I could go on with an incredible career but I should get on with the Ol' Bird!

Built in Dearborn, Michigan with a Birthday of July 26th 1955 (26G), this very collectable early T-Thunderbird is loaded with great factory colors and options! Let's start with the nice factory color combo, she is "Torch Red" (R) with "Red/Wht" (XB) Interior! Equipped with BOTH the Factory Red Hardtop and Correct Black Canvas Soft Top, it's ready for all seasons! Other cosmetic options round off her looks with Fender Skirts, Wire Wheel Covers and Wide White Wall Tires! On the inside, early creature comfort features include: power windows, power seat, factory tachometer, clock, AM radio and heater!

Under the hood she sports just what she was born with! Powered by the correct 198hp 292 cubic inch 4 barrel V8 that's hooked to a driver friendly automatic transmission! YES, she also has POWER STEERING and POWER BRAKES! Her Dual Exhaust quietly runs underneath and finally exiting correctly out the Rear Bumper Guards! There is no mistaking the sound of FORDS 292 V8! This is an excellent running and driving T-BIRD! 

In closing, cars of this stature, color, options and originality are certainly a special find! Top that off with the fact that it's one of the 1st Birds delivered to California and was given to Jack Lemmon by Ed Sullivan for an appearance on the Tonight Show!
