My uncle and aunt had 3 sons, so they owned a’54 Ford station wagon. For just themselves, my uncle bought a raven black’56 Thunderbird. I know the porthole hardtop was first offered in ‘56 so theirs had one. Odd that this one featured here does not (although both hardtops were offered - with or without the porthole in ‘56 & ‘57, then not until’02 to 05).
Okay I'll order one please
"American Graffiti" had a '56 featured.
I love how they referred to it as a “magic carpet“.
I'll wait until 57
Nostalgia hits hard

Amazing
Thanks for watching!
Didn't the 56 have the porthole window?
In 1956 and 57 you could have either with or without a porthole window. And initially, the 56 did not offer it yet.
