    In today's video, I continue working on a 1956 Ford Thunderbird that was recently acquired by a friend of our from an estate sale. It's an all-original ONE OWNER car with a little over 50k miles on it. It's also a very well optioned car, definitely not something you come across very often. After getting the car running off of filling the carburetor float bowl, it's time to dive deeper and get it moving under its own power. I'll be doing a TON of service work, including getting the original carburetor refurbished, replace the tires, re-do the entire fuel system, and more! Lots of things to do, replace and check over before it's ready, it's time to breathe new life into this baby bird! This will be a fun one to work on! Enjoy the video!

    Those tires look incredible Kyle! Big fan of whitewalls (especially the thin stripe style). Looking forward to more progress on this T-Bird.

    Awesome video... learned a lot. I inherited my dad's 56 T-Bird also no tranny cooler lines, I had no idea it has an intake port for air. Great job!

    I just realized that 56 must be a very early one, 56 have cooling lines from radiator for the tranny. Only 55 have air cooled. I have owned about 6 of these birds over the years, they are the best car and value out there

      It was already crumbled in many places, and it was dry rotted. Unfortunately there was no saving it.

    Since the wheels were red and the steering wheel appears to be red, the car was probably Fiesta Red.
