For Sale: 1956 Ford Thunderbird in Maryville, Illinois for sale in Maryville, IL

1 of 43
Vehicle Description My late husband purchased the car in 1970.
I believe he was the 2nd or 3rd owner.
The car was his baby.
It is a hard top convertible.
Rag top is behind the seat but unsure of the condition as it has not been put up for several years.
In 1974 he had a new short block 312 engine put in the car instead of rebuilding the original engine.
The car has 93,689 miles on the odometer.
Last year I had this engine rebuilt due to a mechanics error.
(This is a story for another day).
Less than 300 miles on the rebuilt engine.
New tires and fuel pump.
Car body was stripped to bare metal and painted one year ago.
I have the fender skirts but have not put them back on the car.
Complete new interior ready to be installed.
Also various new chrome accessories and rubber moldings need installing as well.
It is searching for a new home and an owner who has the energy, time and interest to complete the restoration.
Time for someone else to enjoy it and create great memories.

Don't Be Fooled

  • When selling, do not put your home address in your ad.
  • To avoid scams, buy and sell with people you can meet locally, in person.
  • When meeting with someone you don't know, meet in a public place. If that's not possible, have a buddy with you. Also, carry a cell phone; if you feel unsafe, you can call a trusted friend, and stay on the line.
  • Never give out financial or private information like account numbers, PayPal login, or social security number.
  • If an offer sounds too good to be true, it is. Walk away!
