The first Thunderbird was a two seat convertible, Ford's first two seater since 1938, developed in answer to the Chevrolet Corvette. Ford pitched it as a personal car of distinction rather than a sports car, and it was built largely from existing Ford parts with a removable fiberglass top as standard and a V8 engine. It was unveiled at the Detroit show in February 1954 and went on sale in October of that year as a 1955 model. Each model year has its own page.
