Used Ford Thunderbird for Sale near Owen Sound, ON
4.8 Overall rating
(7 reviews)What a machine - we'll never see anything remotely like it again...Stright line comfort and performance - corners like a bucket of seaweed.... power windows and power seats, in 1960!! Wow. An absolute sign of the times, the 1960 Thunderbird defines the era beautifully.
Many reasons to Love this Bird. It was the last year of the Square Bird. It was the last year ford offered the Monster V8 430 cu in Lincoln Engine. It was the only year this Car almost won the Datona 500 race but for a small part it would have. Aside from that , I drove one for 6 years and it was a Hell of a car.
The square birds are great cars. I know the convertibles are beautiful cars,and head turners for sure.
For a car its age it is way ahead of its time with everything available.
While my first car in life was a 59 Thunderbird hardtop, my second was a 1960 Thunderbird convertible. I have owned many since those days. The 60 Thunderbird, in my humble opinion, is the best of the squarebird variety- much like the 57 was the best of the 1st generation Thunderbird. The 60 Thunderbird convertible was the first to offer a fully automatic top, which leveraged the mechanical of the retractable hardtop to place the ragtop into the trunk with a tug of a switch. It was available a full year before Lincoln got on board with that technology for their convertibles in 61. They are not, however, nearly as nimble or graceful, when it comes to turning or stopping, as their predecessors from 55-57 are. They are beautiful, rugged machines that were warmly welcomed by most folks when they were new but then were fairly disrespected by the collector car crowd for the following 30 years. It is nice to see that they finally have come into their own prestige much like Generation one did, right out of the gate.
