Buying or Selling a 1955-57 Thunderbird?
CTSD does not advertise Tbirds to San Diego members (because they typically already have Tbirds), but if you have one to sell, may we recommend the following:
Post on Facebook Thunderbird buy and sell groups (there are many)
Auction it at Bring a Trailer
Contact Prestige Thunderbird in Santa Fe Springs
If you are looking to buy a local San Diego Tbird from a member, do contact us. You never know.
