This 1955 Thunderbird is part of the not-yet-documented "first 1000" VIN list. The gathering of information about this Thunderbird is of top priority to the Registry. Status 99 is reserved for 1955 Thunderbirds which have a last-six of 101000 or lower, and are not yet visually documented. UPDATE November 2014, Dennis Potter and Dennis Dole reported almost simultaneously: This '55 Thunderbird has been customized and received an updated later model 302 engine & overdrive transmission.
The dash has been modified and has new custom gauges.
The suspension has also been updated with a later model rear axle, power rack & pinion steering and 4 wheel power disc brakes. The car has a vinyl covered hardtop, no soft top. It is for sale in Las Vegas, Nevada. (picture added, codes added, status changed to Intact)
