Arjan Rietveld

This stunning Ford Thunderbird was originally delivered in Santa Barbara, California, in 1955. It spent many years in the hands of its American owner before making its way to the Netherlands, where it became part of a cherished collection of classic cars.

The exterior is finished in Torch Red, a distinguished and timeless color that enhances the car’s iconic styling. The paintwork remains in good condition, with only minor signs of use that speak to its history. Complementing the exterior is a beautiful red-and-white leather interior, which is well-maintained and in excellent condition.

This Thunderbird is equipped with an impressive list of features, including:

A depth-adjustable steering wheel
Power steering 
Partially electrically adjustable seats for added convenience
See-through speedometer

Having undergone a complete restoration, this Thunderbird is now in superb technical condition. Shifts smoothly through the gears, engine runs beautifully and without any unusual noises.

Additionally, this exceptional vehicle comes with documentation to support its provenance and original U.S. Title. Unfortunately, the restoration records have been lost over time, but the car’s current state speaks volumes about the quality of its preservation.

We have customers worldwide and are happy to work with you to explore transportation options.
