1957 Ford Thunderbird

• Colonial White paint and chrome present clean and glossy all round, with no dents or rust visible in the exterior views.
• The porthole hardtop is fitted in every photo; no soft top is shown, so a convertible top can't be judged.
• Chrome wire wheels wear wide whitewall tires, and the rear wheel sits under a fitted fender skirt.
• The tan interior pairs plaid cloth seat inserts with tan trim, a leather-wrapped wheel rim and a clean tan headliner.
• The odometer photo shows 86,366 miles.
• The engine bay is tidy, with a red V8, finned Thunderbird valve covers and a chrome air cleaner.
• Underside photos show a black-painted frame, X-brace and suspension with no heavy rust visible.
• No trunk photos are in the set, so the trunk floor and spare can't be judged.

Money: At $50,679 the money buys a clean, fully photographed white '57 Bird whose underside and engine bay back up the shiny exterior; budget a pre-purchase check of the trunk and soft-top situation, since neither is shown at this price.
