From a factory-supercharged '57 Thunderbird to a Superformance GT40 continuation and the rarest Quicksilver Ford GT ever built, here are ten of the coolest Fords currently listed for sale on Motorious.
No. 10: 1951 Ford F-3 — $260,000
This 1951 F-3 has been transformed into a full-blown custom, built around a channeled body, a Roadster Shop independent front suspension, and a chopped roof that gives it a low, salt-flats-racer stance. Every detail was fabricated by hand, right down to a custom bed designed specifically to haul a vintage 1969 Triumph TT motorcycle. It's the rare kind of build that turns a humble postwar pickup into a genuine automotive art piece.

No. 9: 1976 Ford Capri ROKSTOCK RSRGT — $225,000
Built by ROKSTOCK as a vintage-style road-race tribute, this Capri wears period-correct drag and rally graphics over a 351 V8 and a fresh, low-mileage build with barely 500 miles since completion. The Capri was Ford of Europe's answer to the Mustang, and this ROKSTOCK RSRGT interpretation takes that formula and turns it into a genuinely rare, race-inspired oddity that most American collectors have never seen in person. It's proof that "coolest Ford" doesn't always mean the obvious choice.

No. 8: 1957 Ford Thunderbird — $239,900
In 1957, Ford briefly offered a factory-supercharged version of the Thunderbird, and this F-code car is one of roughly 200 built with that setup. Finished in correct Colonial White over a red interior, it underwent a full frame-off restoration by Thunderbird specialists at Hill's Automotive, completed in 2020 to a concours-grade standard. It's a documented piece of Ford performance history hiding inside one of the prettiest personal luxury cars of the 1950s.

No. 7: 1964 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt — $195,000
Only around 100 Fairlane Thunderbolts were built for 1964, factory lightweight drag cars stripped of sound deadening and fitted with fiberglass body panels to homologate Ford's 427 for NHRA competition. This example comes straight from a museum collection with a well-documented racing history and was even immortalized as a Hot Wheels die-cast. Few Fords carry more genuine factory drag-racing pedigree than a real Thunderbolt.

No. 6: 1974 Ford Bronco — $269,000
Maxlider Brothers Customs built this early Bronco around a frame-off restoration commissioned from its own private collection of original VIN frames, then dropped in a modern Coyote 5.0-liter V8 for genuinely usable power. The finished product blends classic short-wheelbase Bronco looks with the kind of drivability, suspension, and fit-and-finish that a stock '74 could never offer. It's the formula that's made resto-mod Broncos one of the hottest segments in the collector market right now.

No. 5: 1966 Ford Mustang GT350-H — $225,000
In 1966, Shelby built roughly 1,000 GT350s specifically for Hertz's "Rent-a-Racer" program, letting everyday customers rent a race-bred fastback for a weekend at the track. Finished in the signature black-with-gold-stripes look most associated with the program, this fastback carries genuine Shelby GT350 mechanicals under its Hertz-commissioned skin. It's one of the more unusual footnotes in American performance history, a legitimate race car you could once pick up at a rental counter.

No. 4: 1967 Ford Mustang Eleanor Tribute Edition — $269,950
Made famous by Nicolas Cage's getaway car in Gone in 60 Seconds, "Eleanor" has become one of the most recognizable Mustangs ever built, recognized at the Petersen Automotive Museum's "Greatest Cars of the Movies" event. This certified tribute took more than 4,000 man-hours to build and swaps the movie's usual grey for a striking Medium Blue Metallic with white Le Mans stripes, backed by a 427 FE big-block V8. It's Hollywood history you can actually drive.

No. 3: 1967 Ford Mustang GT500 — $253,000
This Hi-Tech Legends GT500 is a Shelby-licensed reproduction that pairs the unmistakable styling of the original 1967 GT500, fog lights, dual scoops, and all, with the reliability and drivability of a modern build. It's finished in classic blue with white Le Mans stripes, one of the most enduring color combinations in Mustang history. For buyers who want the Shelby look and experience without hunting for an increasingly scarce and expensive original, builds like this have become one of the smartest ways into GT500 ownership.

No. 2: 1968 Superformance GT40 MKI — $295,500
Superformance builds its GT40 continuations under official Ford licensing, using the original blueprints and a body constructed from the same aluminum used on the 1960s Le Mans cars. This example, chassis P2451, is finished in Guardsman Blue and powered by a fuel-injected 427ci V8 through a Quaife 5-speed transaxle, with just 3,519 miles on the clock. It's the closest most people will ever get to owning the car that beat Ferrari at Le Mans four years running, without the seven-figure price tag of an original.

No. 1: 2005 Ford GT — $1,099,980
This 2005 Ford GT wears Quicksilver, a color offered for a single model year on just 154 of the roughly 4,000 GTs Ford built, making it one of the rarest factory colors in the car's short production run. It's loaded with all four factory options, including painted stripes, gray brake calipers, a McIntosh stereo, and forged BBS wheels, and shows barely 1,700 miles. As a modern homage to the Le Mans-winning GT40 with a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 good for 550 horsepower, it's the single coolest Ford money can buy on Motorious right now.
