Description
Introduced a year prior, the 1956 model year saw a few changes. The spare tire was mounted outside, freeing up more trunk space, the exhaust tips were moved to the ends of the bumper, and air vents were added behind the front wheels to improve cabin ventilation. Production total for 1956 was 15,631 units, the lowest of all three 2-seater Thunderbird model years.
This small-body Thunderbird came absolutely loaded from the factory! Starting with the engine, 1956 was the first year the 312cid Y-block V8 was available as an option, and this red beauty has it! The very distinguishable “porthole”…

This small-body Thunderbird came absolutely loaded from the factory! Starting with the engine, 1956 was the first year the 312cid Y-block V8 was available as an option, and this red beauty has it! The very distinguishable “porthole” on the hardtop was another factory option that was checked on this example. Other well-loaded options include A/C, power steering, power front disc brakes, and power windows.
The exterior wears the Fiesta Red and presents very well. Wire wheels are wrapped in white wall radials. Putting the power from the V8 to the ground is the Ford-O-Matic 3 speed that shifts very well.
The two tone red and white interior is show quality and feels great sliding in and out of. One of the coolest features in my opinion is the transparent speedometer gauge. Something that just adds uniqueness to the Thunderbird. What appears to be the original handbook lies in the glove box and awaits the next owner to read!
