Power seats, power steering, tilt steering wheel, and air conditioning add comfort and convenience, and an aftermarket tachometer keeps the driver connected to the performance of the BluePrint V8.

Front disc brakes improve stopping power, making this 1955 T-Bird as enjoyable to drive in modern traffic as it is to admire at a car show. The beautifully finished trunk, trimmed to match the interior, showcases the level of craftsmanship carried throughout the build.
