1957 Ford Thunderbird

The final year of the two seat car brought a reshaped front bumper, larger grille and tailfins and larger taillights. The spare wheel moved back inside the trunk, which was redesigned so that the tire could be mounted vertically, and the Thunderbird script moved from the fins to the front fenders. A new Dial-o-Matic four way power seat that remembered its position was among the options. The two seat car was replaced the following year by a larger four seater. These were the changes of the 1957 model year, the last for the first generation.
