You guys are too young to know.  The Thunderbird was introduced in 1955 
and produced as a 2-seater in '56 and '57.  Then Ford lost their daring 
and produced a 4-seater for '58 until I don't know when but don't care.

This is probably the ultimate T-bird shop specializing in restoration of 
only the classic 55-57 models. <https://www.amosminter.com/>  I know the 
place well as my nephew is their painter.  A Minter T-bird can draw 
$100,000 at auction.
