1955 Ford Thunderbird: Back in Black -- BIG MUSCLE
It's been in the same family for the better part of 50 years. Been modified with performance and weight savings in mind, and is one of the sleekest looking cars we've ever come across. This 1955 Ford Thunderbird is no secretaries car, but a purpose built award winning street machine that was built in a time before resto-modding old cars was all the rage.

The Sound of 1424HP
Car Craft Nationals 2009. July 17th,18th,19th. St. Paul, MN Ford Thunderbird, All-Aluminum 572, F3 Pro-Charger. The car actually makes over 1700HP to the wheels but the day before the owner discovered one(of two) blow-off valves was cracked at the based where it was welded to the piping. They fixed it right quick by placing the Car Craft license plate givin' to them from entering in the show and wrapped a slab of thick rubber around the license plate and tied it all down with 3 hose clamps. This car won the Mobil 1 Dyno Challenge for the weekend with this pull. Rate. Critique dont Criticize.
