1957 Ford Thunderbird F-Code

Over its remarkable 43-year career, Ford’s Thunderbird has appeared with two and four seats, soft-top and coupe bodies, and eight-, six-, and four-cylinder engines, the latter with a turbo. No doubt the most sought after of all is the renowned 1957 “F-Code” from the early two-seat period. The “F-Bird,” as it became known, was no doubt intended to challenge Chevrolet’s new-for-1957 fuel injection, but its objective was actually much more ambitious: domination of the nation’s race tracks.
