312 V8, PWR BRAKES, PWR STEERING, PWR SEAT, PWR WINDOW, REMOVABLE HARDTOP, SOFT TOP, CONTINENTAL KIT
The 1956 Thunderbird offered minimal changes from the previous year, the most notable including a new rear bumper, a winged badge on the nose, new taillights, front fender vents to keep the passenger compartment cooler, new interior seat and door panels as well as new exterior colors. Perhaps the most notable change was the addition of the decorative mounting of the spare tire on the rear of the car outside the trunk. Ford built 15,631 of the two-seat Thunderbirds for the 1956 model year, including this example finished in classic Raven Black over a white-and-black interior.
Nicely equipped, it includes power steering, power brakes, power windows, power seat (not working) the highly desirable Town & Country radio, rare factory air conditioning, fender skirts, full wheel covers, wide whitewall tires and both soft convertible and removable hardtop. In addition, a 1956 Ford shop manual and owner's manual are included, as well as a stack of maintenance records.
Optional 312 V-8 engine
Ford-O-Matic transmission

Highly desirable Town & Country radio
Both soft and hard tops
Power steering

Factory fender skirts
Factory engine dress up kit

Like Corvette, Ford quickly learned that more power equated to more sales. This Thunderbird is equipped with the newly optional 312 cubic inch V-8 producing 225 horsepower with a 3-speed Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission. This was also the first year for the 12-volt electrical system. The engine bay is clean and is equipped with the optional engine dress up kit that includes a chrome air cleaner, chrome oil breather cap and cool finned aluminum Thunderbird logo valve covers.
This beautiful and highly-optioned Raven Black 1956 Thunderbird is ready to take flight with its next lucky owner. Call today!
