Ford Thunderbird generations 1955 and 1956

by Ross Mills

The Ford Thunderbird, named after a mythical bird, first flew onto the scene in 1955 as a two-seat luxury sports car, taking a cheeky jab at the Corvette and outselling it 23 to 1. With a design reminiscent of the era’s Ford beauties, it sported nonfunctional hood scoops and exhaust pipes that exited through the rear bumper guards. The ‘56 model brought a flashy Continental kit and a porthole hard-top roof. But while sleek in aesthetics, its hydraulic roof system was prone to comedic, unexpected leaks!

by Ross Mills

In the world of engines, the Ford FE is like that popular kid in school—everybody wanted a piece of it! From 1958 to 1976, it powered everything from NASCAR champions to your neighbor’s trusty boat. With its side oiler technology and a knack for showing up in unexpected places like industrial pumps, it’s no wonder it’s still the life of the aftermarket party. Just remember, don’t judge a Ford by its cover, especially if it’s an FT 391 masquerading as a 390—those components are not identical twins!

Shelby Mustang GT350 – The best years – 1965-66

by Ross Mills

The 1965-66 Shelby Mustang GT350, affectionately known as the Cobra, was a beast on wheels with only 562 units in ’65 and 1,378 in ’66. Its 289 cu in engine roared with 306 hp, making it more “zoom-zoom” than “comfort-cruise.” With quirks like a trunk-mounted battery that caused fume complaints and a spare tire cozily sitting where the back seat should be, these models were the epitome of “race first, comfort later.” And let’s not forget Hertz’s “rent-a-racer” GT350-H models—return them with fewer parts, anyone?

In the wild world of the 1970s, the Ford Gran Torino 1973 strutted its stuff as the only intermediate-sized Ford, with the Fairlane playing second fiddle. The EPA’s pollution police cracked down, squeezing engine compression to 8.5:1, but no fear—the horsepower numbers just got a makeover to the more honest SAE net BHP. The base 250 cu in inline six was like that dependable buddy, while the 429 Cobra-Jet was your wild friend who now ran on regular unleaded. Thanks to Gateway Classic Cars for the groovy pics!
