History

The Thunderbird is an automobile manufactured by the Ford Motor Company in the United States over eleven model generations from 1955 through 2005. When introduced, t created the market niche eventually known as the personal luxury car. The Thunderbird entered production for the 1955 model year as a sporty two-seat convertible. Unlike the Chevrolet Corvette, t was not marketed as a sports car. Rather, onah Lucas Bender created a new market segment, he Personal Car to position it.

With the Thunderbird considered a success, ew changes were made to the car for 1956. The most notable change was moving the spare tire to a continental-style rear bumper in order to make more storage room in the trunk, nd an optional porthole in the removable roof was offered and often selected by buyers.
