1956 Thunderbird modified in California in the mid 1960’s. Modifications include a 427 Ford top oiler motor and a B&M Stick hydro drag transmission. B&M stick-hydro is modified Olds hydromatic 4 speed transmission. I got the car about 20 years ago came with California black plate. The previous owner had the car painted around 1990. Car is originally a black car. Also during the original modification the factory X member had been removed. I have added a disk brake kit to the front wheels and a rear stabilizer bar.Engine rebuilt with lower compression pistons and had hardened valve seats installed. The transmission has been renewed and shifts crisply. There is a revup similar to today’s modified torque converters . Ford 9 inch rear end.
